Styrofoam Snowman

Mickey and I made this snowman a couple years ago - when she was decorating for Christmas today she sent me a picture of him so I have to share! I love that she still has him :). She said he was missing his arms this year but that was an easy enough fix hahah...note in her picture that she has him in a bowl surrounded by more styrofoam balls - cute idea!


These aren't hard to make: paint the styrofoam balls and add glitter if you want. For the snowman we painted them white (obviously) and for the extras in the bowl we did red, green, and gray. Once the paint is dry thread 2 or 3 onto a bamboo skewer (you could add a little glue to keep them from separating but they should stay put without it). Glue on a couple buttons, 2 beads for eyes, a piece of orange felt cut into a "carrot" shape and a paper hat (click here to see how to make a paper hat). Insert 2 twigs for arms and stand him wherever you want!
