simple is so great, right? xo mer Reply alice December 10th, 2013


I love the every classic snowman . The tradition of creating a simple and wonderful character out of nature’s snowstorms makes for lots of magic and wonder. I wanted to capture just a bit of that wonder in these simple DIY snowman ornaments, centrelink online perfect for children of all ages to make.
I started with a pre-made paper mache ornament found at my local craft store (but if you are snowed in or feeling thrifty, you can make your own following these paper mache instructions, adding a string ) . Paint the ornament white and let dry. Cut out a long triangle shape out of orange paper. Make sure the bottom is curved just a bit. Roll it up and glue it closed. I used hot glue for this part. Glue the nose onto the ornament (again I used hot glue but other types of glue would work as well, just hold it still while drying). Paint on snowman face. Have fun with it! Let it all dry. Now your ornament is ready to hang and enjoy!
We made a bunch of these and we can’t wait to hang them on our tree (that we still need to get btw! We better get a move on!). And with the epic storm we just had, I’m sure we’ll be rolling up some real snow soon, making a few or our own real ones! But for now we’re staying snuggly and warm with these guys, and I’m not complaining about it one bit.
