Instructions
Decorating Your Sock Snowman
Now, you can use a variety of craft supplies to decorate your sock snowman! Here are some fun ideas to give you a little inspiration
Glue a pom-pom to the top of the hat. Use a thin strip of felt, ribbon, or scrap fabric as a scarf to tie around your snowman’s neck. Use puffy fabric paint to draw on a face. Glue buttons, sequins, googly eyes, beads, or felt shapes onto the head to create a face. Glue three or four buttons down the front of the snowman’s body. Cut an orange chenille stem down to size and use it as your sock snowman’s nose. Use chenille stems to create arms. If you can find a mini broom at your local craft store, you can glue it to make it look like your snowman is holding it. Use a black sock to create a penguin friend for your snowman using the same method, gluing white felt down the middle for its face and belly.
