What do you need to make a paper snowman craft?
The best part about this snowman craft is that you likely already have the materials at home! You’ll need paper in white, orange, red, black and tan, plus scissors, glue and that’s all!
What can you do with your paper snowman?
You can make different sizes as we show in the video. Why not create an entire family of snowman for each family member? You can write each person’s name on the hats.
These paper snowman can easily be turned into holiday ornaments by punching a hole at the top of the hat and threading some twine or ribbon across.
We love displaying our snowman propped up on the mantel. Or you can string them up into a fun holiday garland!
They would also make cute gift tag toppers for presents. The possibilities are endless!
