How To Make This Snowman Paper Plate Craft

1. Cut a triangular carrot shaped nose from the orange construction paper. The nose can be small or large, depending on how you want your snowman to look.

2. Glue the nose to the middle of the paper plate.

3. Above the nose, glue two googly eyes.

4. Glue the black pom poms in a smile underneath the nose.

5. Glue the pipe cleaner to the edge of the paper plate on top to look like the headpiece of earmuffs.

6. Glue two large pom poms to the tips of the pom poms to complete the earmuffs.

7. Cut a small rectangular piece out of the colored construction paper. Only cut it to the width of the paper plate. Then, cut two smaller rectangular pieces.

8. On the small rectangular pieces, add small cuts to the bottom to resemble a fringe.

9. Glue the large rectangular piece to the bottom of the paper plate.

10. Glue the two smaller pieces to the large piece to complete the scarf. You can glue them to the front or the back for a cleaner look.

Tips For This Snowman Paper Plate Craft

Hot glue works best, especially with the pom poms and pipe cleaner. Only use hot glue with adult supervision. Do not let kids use a hot glue gun.

Choose any color construction paper for the scarf and pom poms and pipe cleaner for the ear muffs.
