How to make this craft step-by-step:
Materials
To make this little snowman you will need:
- Two polystyrene balls (Ø 10 cm and Ø 7 cm)
- Yarn
- Wiggle eyes (Ø 2.5 cm)
- A cardboard roll
- Plastic buttons
- Natural wood strips (15.5 x 1.8 cm)
- Metallic colored pipe cleaners
- A pompom
- Wood sticks (10 cm)
- A glue gun
- A pair of scissors
Step 1
For the hat :
Cut a piece of cardboard roll about 1.5 cm high and approximately 40 strands of yarn about 30 cm long.
Tip : Use multiple colors of yarn to create a multicolored hat.
Step 2
Fold the wool thread in half and pass it inside the cardboard circle.
Step 3
Pass both ends of the thread through the loop and pull.
Step 4
Use this technique to cover the entire surface of the cardboard circle.
Step 5
Once the circle is covered, pass the threads through the inside to create the "fold" of the bonnet.
Step 6
Cut a small piece of wire to attach the whole using a double knot.
Step 7
Trim with a pair of scissors to create a nice pompom.
Step 8
For the scarf :
Cut 12 strands of wool approximately 70 cm long.
Tip : Use multiple colors of wool to create a multicolored scarf.
Step 9
For the braiding:
- Separate the threads into 3 strands, each made up of 4 wool threads.
- Pass the right strand over the middle one.
- Pass the left strand over the middle one.
- Continue crossing the right and left strands over the middle one in turn.
- Then tie the two ends.
Step 10
Glue a polystyrene ball with a diameter of 7 cm onto a ball with a diameter of 10 cm using a glue gun.
Then glue 2 wooden strips to form the skis, ensuring that the figure remains stable.
Step 11
Glue the hat, the googly eyes, and the pom-pom onto the ball with a diameter of 7 cm to create the snowman's face.
Step 12
Wrap the snowman's scarf around its neck two times and make a small knot to give it the shape of a scarf.
Step 13
Glue a few buttons onto the 10 cm Ø styrofoam ball.
Also glue a button at the end of the 2 wooden sticks to create the ski poles.
Step 14
To create the arms of the figure, cut 2 pipe cleaners to 8 cm and insert them into the foam ball Ø 10 cm.
Then wrap the ends of the pipe cleaners around the ski poles to complete the creation.
