Supplies for the Craft Stick Snowman Ornament Craft

- White acrylic craft paint (You can find it on Amazon or Walmart
- Craft brushes (You can find them on Amazon) or at Jo-Ann’s Fabric.
- Craft foam (You can find it on Amazon) or Felt (You can find it on Amazon or Jo-Ann’s Fabric.
- Rustic fabric cut into a 7โx ยพโ strip (I got mine from Joann, but I also found them on Amazon)
- Buttons (I got mine from Walmart, but I also found them on Amazon)
- Ribbon or twine (You can find it on Amazon) or pick it up at Jo-Ann’s
- Glue Gun (You can find it on Amazon) or pick one up at Walmart
- White school or Tacky glue order it from Amazon or Walmart
- Black fine point marker
- Floral wire cutters (You can find them on Amazon) or Walmart
- Craft scissors (You can find them on Amazon)
How to make these cute ornaments
Step 1: Using your white paint, cover your craft stick evenly. Allow to dry completely and then paint one more coat. I found one coat didnโt give it a white enough color.
Step 2: While your paint is drying, cut your top hat and nose out of your foam or felt. Either will work great. We used felt as that is what we had I the craft bin.
Step 3: Glue your hat and nose onto your craft stick.
Step 4: Using your black marker, draw your eyes and mouth for your snowman. Make sure to give him a fun personality!
Step 5: Place your fabric scarf piece a bit below your snowmanโs mouth. Position the craft stick in the middle of the fabric and place a dollop of glue in the middle of the fabric and press the craft stick onto it. Allow to dry.
Step 6: Now, this next step is completely optional. I did this step to give the scarf some stability. I cut a small rectangle of felt and glued it onto the open side of the scarf and the put a line of glue across the felt and closed the fabric onto it. If you want to skip this, then just add a line of glue across the fabric to close the scarf and leave out the felt ?
Step 7: Cut a length of ribbon or twine approximately 6โ, form a loop and tie in a small secure knot at the end. Allow to dry completely. Hang on your tree and enjoy!
