How to Make a Snowman Ornament
Snowman Key DIY Ornament Instructions
-
Take your key into a well ventilated area and spray paint your keys white. Allow them to fully dry.
-
Using the bottom of your paint brush dip it into some pink paint and add rosy cheeks. Repeat this step using the appropriate colors to paint the eyes, mouths, and carrot noses on all the snowmen. Allow to dry.
-
Take small pieces of pipe cleaner and glue around the top of the keys from one side to the other creating the tops of the earmuffs.
-
Once dry, glue pom poms on either side of the keys to complete your ear muffs.
-
Using pieces of pipe cleaner, bend and twist them around the bottom of the keys as their scarves.
-
If making them a keychain or an ornament, take a piece of your wire and pony beads and create a loop and twist the ends to secure it. Now give them to your friends and family and display for the holidays!
