Snowman Ornament

I found this on the Family Fun website. I have been looking for fun ornaments to make with my boys (4 years & 2 years)...& these are the winners.




CRAFT MATERIALS:
3 round objects (we used a spice jar lid, the bottom of a yogurt container, and a mason jar lid)
Scissors
Craft foam, white and orange
Glue dots
Fishing Line
Buttons
Permanent marker
Ribbon

Time needed: Under 1 Hour

1. Using the round objects as patterns, cut out 2 white foam circles in each size. 2. Place one set of the circles on a flat surface, spacing them 1/4 inch apart. With glue dots, glue a 12-inch piece of fishing line across the circles as shown, then firmly press the matching circles on top. 3. Use more glue dots to attach buttons and an orange craft foam nose. With a permanent marker, draw on eyes and a mouth. Finally, tie a ribbon scarf around the fishing line at the neck, and then knot the line above the head to create a loop for hanging.
On the comments on this...everyone said that they made a hat for the snowman out of the craft foam. I can't wait to make these & put them on our tree.
