FELT SNOWMAN What you’ll need: • 1 yard of white felt
• 1 sheet of red felt • Scissors • Spray adhesive • Thumbtacks
• 2-3 sheets of black felt • 1 sheet of orange felt
What to do: 1. First, you need to grab 1 yard of white felt, 2-3 sheets of black felt, 1 sheet of orange felt, and 1 sheet of red felt. If you want you can do some tan or brown felt for arms, too. 2. Next, cut out five big black circles (for eyes and buttons), six little black circles (for the mouth), a carrot nose, and two brown arms. 3. To make the body of the snowman, cut your white felt in half so you have two big squares. Then fold on in half hotdog-style. Now cut your snowman out! Cut three half- circles, making them bigger with each circle. Open him up and you’ve got a snowman!
4. Now you want to make your top hat and your scarf. You’ll want to wait until you have your snowman cut so you know how big your scarf and hat need to be. Create a T for your scarf, and cut the end so it looks fringed. For the hat, cut two rectangles out of your black felt so it makes a hat. 5. You have all your pieces! To make them stick, you’ll need some spray adhesive. Just follow the directions for a temporary hold, and then the pieces will stick to your snowman’s body! Don’t spray the snowman! To put the snowman up on the wall, use little silver thumbtacks. Now all your pieces will fit on your snowman and your kids can have fun building a snowman, even when there’s no snow outside!
