DIY Snowman Door Decoration

CategoryDifficultyBeginner
Total Time45 mins
 1 large sheet of black poster board
 1 sheet of black glitter cardstock
 1 sheet of orange cardstock
 1 sheet of cardstock or giftwrap for "fabric" detail on top hat
 1 sheet of green cardstock for leaves
 1 sheet of cardstock of choice for flowers / hollyberries
 1 piece of gift wrap at least 4-6" wide and 36" long
 roll of painters tape
 scissors
1

Trace out round black circles for the snowman’s coal eyes and mouth. I found a glass that I thought would be an appropriate size. I traced 8 circles around 2 ½ inches in diameter (5 for the mouth & 3 for coal buttons). I traced 2 slightly larger circles around 3” in diameter for the eyes. I used black glitter paper as it made our snowman’s eyes sparkle in the light.

2

Draw and cut the shape of a top hat and top hat brim out of the large piece of black poster board.

3

Out of orange cardstock, freehand and cut out a carrot nose (I also, drew some lines on the nose for more detail.)

4

Out of other paper of your colour choice freehand and cut out shapes for flowers, leaves, or holly berries.

5

Cut the scarf from a large piece of gift wrap. Make sure you cut the piece long enough that it goes across the width of the door.

6

I then used painters tape which I put into a loop (because it’s easy on the finish of our walls and doors) and had the kids help me attach all of our snowman parts to the door.
