Adhere jute to top of the Glue Dots and then adhere wooden sticks over the top.

Using Glue Lines, adhere smaller wood stick horizontally for brim of hat.

Paint the lower half of snowman white and the hat and brim black. Let dry.

*Tip: Paint everything first to make it less messy for younger children.*

Cut small triangle nose from orange cardstock. Use Micro Dots to adhere eyes and nose.

Use a black marker and make dots for mouth.

Use gems, flowers or snowflakes to embellish hat.
