You can easily build a whole bunch of these no-melt snowmen no matter what the weather in your area.
Materials
- Needle
- Thread
- White pom-poms in 2 sizes: 1-1/2 inches and 1 inch
- Colored felt
- 1/4-inch jump rings
- Glue
- Orange felt
- Black fabric paint
- Yarn
- String
Instructions
1. For each one, thread a needle with a 2-foot length of thread, then double it and knot the end. For the snowman's body and head, pass the needle through the centers of 3 white pom-poms: first a 1-1⁄2-inch pom-pom, then two 1-inch pom-poms.
2. To add a hat, sew through the centers of a 1-1⁄2-inch circle of colored felt and a matching 1-inch pom-pom. Slip the needle through a 1⁄4-inch jump ring (found in the beading aisle of craft stores), then secure the snowman by scrunching the parts together slightly and sewing back through the hat and the head. Tie the thread to itself between the two 1-inch white pom-poms and trim any excess.
3. Glue on a small orange felt triangle for a nose and add dots of black fabric paint for a face and buttons. Finally, tie on a yarn scarf and a loop of string for a hanger.
