Snowman Paper Decoration

Fire_Cat Here!

Here is an easy and quick craft to make. It can be used for a Christmas tree ornament or just a nice decoration. Whatever you want it to be really.
  Here's how to make it:

Start with a piece of cereal box cardboard. Take a square of wrapping paper and glue it to the cardboard. (gluesticks work best for paper and cardboard. I also recommend snowflake wrapping paper. It suits the scene best.) If you don't have any wrapping paper that you want to use, find other things like scrap booking paper or just use construction paper. Anything goes. 
   Now take a lid from a container, a roll of duck tape or whatever you can find that is round. Put it on to the cardboard with wrapping paper. Trace it with a pencil. You may want to use a pen. A pen shows up better.(I used a blue marker. What a dumb idea. :P)
 Now glue 3 cotton balls on to the bottom of the circle. You can use pom poms too. (hot glue works best.)
Then you cut out a small circle and a big circle out of craft felt. Glue it on in a snowman shape. biggest first then smaller on top.
 Cut out a triangle out of a piece of orange ribbon and glue it on to the snowman. if you don't have any orange ribbon you can use paper or whatever you can find at home. (I recommend not using cheese. it is orange, but still...)


 Cut out 5 little dots if black felt or paper. Glue them on for a smile and eyes. 
 Next, cut out stick shapes from felt or paper. Glue them on to the side of the snowman for arms. If you want to add legs feel free to! Also cut it out.
 Now add a ribbon to hang it. Separately tie a bow and glue it on. I used blue ribbon for this.

Now hang it up and enjoy!!
