Who doesn’t love a snowman?! After all these creatures are super cute to behold. And what if one can be found in one of the corners of your house; that too a one which doesn’t melt😀!

This is one of the cutest craft I’ve done in recent times. Although, it might look difficult but it is one easy thing to do, and believe me kids will be in the middle of it too!

Yarn is such a versatile craft material. I so very much wanted to do a yarn craft for a very long time. The balls will require yarn in ample, if you are making it of a bigger size. Popping up the balloon and getting a stiff yarn ball was the most favorite part of the process. As far as accessorizing and doing up the snowman is concerned, you can be highly adaptable with it and use felt, buttons etc. instead of the art paper.

Let’s get into making!

Materials required:

White yarn
2 Balloons
1 bottle of Tacky glue (4 ounce)
Water
Bowl for mixing
Glitter (optional)
Art paper (blue for hat, black for eyes & smile, orange for nose, red for buttons)
Scissors
Hot glue gun
2 twigs
Scarf
Ribbon (for hat)

Directions:

1. First start by blowing up the ballons. Keep one a little smaller than the other, for the head and the body respectively.

2. Mix glue in water (as much as is comfortable to work with) and start by dipping the yarn in glue mixture and then wrapping it around the balloons. Keep wrapping until they are covered sufficiently but not fully.

3. Sprinkle glitter on wet ballons and let them dry for around 24 hours.

4. Now make a hat using art paper, cutting two circular discs (for the bottom and top of the hat) and a rectangular disc to make a cylinder. Glue the parts to make it look like a hat.

5. Similarly make eyes, nose, face and buttons with art paper.

6. Once the yarn is completely dry, pop the balloon and take it out of the ball.

7. Cut a small circle at the bottom of its head and using a glue gun stick it to the body.

8. Glue the hat. Similarly stick the eyes, nose, smile, and buttons.

9. Insert twigs for hands and tuck in the scarf and your snowman is ready!
