How to Make a DIY Wooden Slice Snowman

Begin by painting the face of your wooden slice white. Set aside to dry while you collect the rest of your materials. 

Next paint on the features of your snowman face. Add a orange carrot for the nose and black coal eyes. 

You can use everyday paint or posca paint pens to add the finer details to your snowman ornament.

Add pink for a rosey cheek and mark black dots to form the effect of a coal smile. 

Using your glitter paper create a bow tie or use a ready made glitter bow tie. You also have the option to use material instead or ribbon. This will allow you to make a unique snowman decoration. 

Draw and cut out a top hat using the black card stock. Glue a strip of coloured glitter card to the hat and glue to the head of your wooden snowman. 

You can use a glue gun to glue all the parts to your snowman. 

Finally don’t forget to glue the string to the back of your snowman ornament so you can hang it on the Christmas tree or give it as a gift. 

Enjoy!
