I know it's not even Thanksgiving yet, but I LOVE winter and I just had to make this little fella.

You Will Need (6 things)

  • 1 Small Styrofoam Ball
  • Black Clay
  • Felt
  • 1 Toothpick
  • Glue (Glue Gun Works Best)
  • 2 Twigs

Steps (7 steps, 45 minutes)

  1. 1

    Glue the small styrofoam ball on top of the large styrofoam ball. You might want to cut a little bit of the edge so it's flat when you glue the pieces together.
    I only had one big styrofoam ball so I cut it in half and carve a small and large one. It turned out okay.

  2. 2

    Find two twigs outside and shove them in the large part of the snowman. You can add a little bit of glue if you like.

  3. 3

    Cut your toothpick in half, and color it orange with a pen. You can also paint it.
    Push it into the snowman's face.

  4. 4

    Shape a top hat out of black clay.
    I only had green clay, so I colored it black with a pen.
    Sorry the photo is cropped weird.
    Glue the hat to the top of the snowman.

  5. 5

    Roll the black clay into tiny balls and glue it to the snowman's face.

  6. 6

    Cut a piece of felt into a long strip and cut the edges like so.
    You can add a pattern to it if you like.

  7. 7

    Tie it around the snowman's neck, and you're finished!
    Isn't he cute? You can put a name on his belly and use it as a name tag for a dinner table, or just keep him on your desk.
