Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Download and print out the template pieces from our blog for this snowman craft here. This particular craft may be used at Christmas using themed papers or it could also be made just during the winter months using different themed papers too.
- Poke a small hole into the paper plate using the tip of your scissors. Then cut out the circle in the center of the paper plate marked by a seam. This cut-away section will become the head of your snowman.
- Staple the head to the top of the paper plate rib to create a basic snowman wreath. (see photos above)
- Now cut out the bow pattern and trace around it on top of decorative paper. Cut out the bow, paste this between the head and body of the snowman wreath using white glue. Let dry.
- Using a black magic marker, draw the different sections of the bow shown on the printed template copy of it.
- Cut out the pattern for the snowman's top hat and trace around this on top of a piece of black construction paper.
- Glue a decorative paper ribbon on top of the top hat and add trims. I've included a tiny holly leaf template for this.
- Glue or staple the top hat onto the snowman's head.
- Glue on the pompoms for his eyes, nose, mouth and holly berries.
- Cut long strips of white construction paper approximately 3 inches wide.
- Cut fringe into these strips and curl them with your scissors.
- Glue the fringes onto the snowman wreath to add texture and 3D surface area.
- Glue on a red tie ribbon to hang the wreath from his top hat.
