Here is a quick, easy way to make a special ornament.

SNOWMAN ORNAMENT

What you’ll need:

1 glass ball (ornament)

2 small pompoms

Black felt (You may want another color for a scarf.)

Black, orange and pink acrylic paints

Scissors

Paintbrush

Hot glue gun

Step 1: Begin by cutting a strip of black felt for the earmuff headband. If you want to make a scarf, cut an extra strip of felt a little thicker than the first.

Step 2: Using your glue gun, glue the felt across the top of the ornament. At each end of the strip, glue a pompom for earmuffs. If you made a scarf, glue that around the bottom of the ball.

Step 3: Paint coal eyes, a mouth, a carrot nose and rosy cheeks on your snowman.

Step 4: Hang on your tree and enjoy!
