Felt Carrot Nose Instructions for DIY Snowman Kit:
1. Cut a square out of your orange craft felt.
2. Fold over to make your carrot nose shape and hot glue down.
3. Trim the extra felt off.
4. Stuff with your Poly-fil.
5. Cut a small hole at the felt flap at widest end of the carrot for your wood match stick.
6. Hot glue down the felt flap.
7. Add hot glue to the hole, then add your wood match stick.
8. Let dry. You now have a carrot nose!
Instructions for DIY Snowman Kit:
Now that you have your tags and carrot nose made, it’s time to start putting your kit together!
1. First count out 12 vase filler black glass beads. I used 2 for eyes, 7 for his smile and 3 for buttons — 12 beads total. Add beads to the bottom of your mason jar.
2. Next add your felt carrot nose (see instructions on how to make above).
3. Finally, add your scarf. I bought mine at The Dollar Store for a dollar. You can also make a scarf using red felt or fleece fabric. Make sure your scarf is thin so it will fit in your jar.
4. Put your lid on. Using a ribbon, tie around your jar and add your tag.
5. The last step is to attach your ear muffs to the outside of your jar. Too make sure the ear muffs stay in place, scotch tape them to your jar lid.
You now have an adorable, interactive and fun gift to give to anyone WHO WANTS TO BUILD A SNOWMAN! Enjoy!!
Well where is a photo of finished one?Do we make it on the jar or with real snow outside. I guess I missed something in translation here. Sorry I’m confused
Sorry….we don’t have any snow here yet so we have not made a snowman with the kit to show as an example. The tag says “Just Add Snow.” You have everything in the kit, but the snow. Mother Nature has to provide that :). Hope this clarifies. Happy Holidays!
This is adorable!
Thank you!!! I gave them as gifts and everyone who had one actually made a snowman. They sent me pics. It was really sweet. Have fun with it and thanks for visiting :)!!
