Snowman Garland Craft Materials:

● 12″ Ribbon or Yarn
● White Ceramic Christmas Bulbs (how many will depend on the spacing you envision for your garland)
● Black Buttons
● Orange Felt
● Fleece Fabric (color of your choice, how much will depend on how many snowman ornaments you are making)
● Scissors
● Glue Gun
● Glue Sticks
● Twine (to hang)

Snowman Garland Craft Directions:

● Cut a piece of ribbon or yarn 12″ in length.
● Fold the ribbon in half and make a slip knot in the hanger portion of the bulb.
● Pull tight.
*If you cannot find matching or coordinating ribbon for the hanging portion, use a piece of the fabric, about 3/8″ wide x 12″ long.

● Cut a piece of fabric into a 6.5″ wide x 9″ long rectangle.

● Fold the fabric about 3/8″ over on the long edge and tack with hot glue.
● Roll up once more and tack with hot glue.

● Wrap the fabric-hat around the bulb, making sure the folded end covers the bulb.
● Affix the ends to the bulb with hot glue.

● Using another piece of thread or yarn, tie a string around the fabric to create a hat. Double knot it.
● Trim the top fabric by cutting it vertically being careful not to cut the hanging ribbon/yarn.

● When working on the face, lay the bulb on a glass or shot glass to hold it in place while you attach the facial features.
● Cut out a small triangle nose out of the orange felt.
● Attach two black button eyes to the ornament using hot glue.
● Attach a button mouth with hot glue (see photo).
● Attach the orange triangle nose to the bulb using hot glue.

● Glue the two pieces of ribbon together on the ends.
● Fold them over and glue the end to the ribbon about 2″ from the fold, creating a loop.

● If hanging on a tree, use an ornament hook or simply loop the ribbon on a branch so the ornament does not fall off.
● If hanging as garland, slip the loops of the ribbon on the snowman ornaments through a piece of twine and hang where desired!
