For this project you will need: - Terracotta clay pot - styrofoam ball - white acrylic paint - textured snow paint - felt snowman hat (found in craft store) - red knitted tube - piece of red felt - white embroidery floss - 6 mm red wooden ball - black dimensional pain - wooden shishkebob skewer - raffia - tacky glue - hot glue gun Ages 7 and older Attention: Always use precaution while using a hot glue gun. Parents should be supervising children while gluing the pieces together. This project needs a bit of time due to the drying time of the paint and structure paste. Craft Recipe for Snow! Make your own snow paste by mixing sand with white paint. Mix until the mixture is thick. Apply it with a small craft spatula and let it dry overnight. Instructions: 1. Paint the outside of the terracotta pot white and let it thoroughly dry. Do not paint the bottom of the pot. 2. Using the hot glue gun, attach the styrofoam ball on the pot and let the glue cool down. 3. Paint the textured snow paint over the head and pot and let it dry overnight. The drying time may take between 12 and 24 hours. 4. Cut a small band for the hat out of the red felt. Glue this onto the hat using the tacky glue. 5. Place glue on the inside cylinder of the hat with the hot glue gun and immediately place it onto the head and let the glue cool. 6. Cut a longer piece of the red tubing. Tie off the ends with white embroidery thread. Tie the tubing around the neck of the snowman. 7. Make a broom by bunching a  bundle of raffia pieces together and binding them off at one end. Dip one end of the skewer into tacky glue and insert the skewer into the center of the bundle and let dry. 8. Attach the broom to the snowman with the hot glue gun. 9. Glue the red bead onto the face for the nose. Use the dimensional paint to make eyes and buttons on the snowman.     More Christmas and Winter Craft Themes: Christmas Crafts for Kids Christmas Fabric Crafts Christmas Wood Crafts Christmas General Crafts Christmas Greeting Cards Christmas Paper Crafts Snowman Crafts Santa Crafts Christmas Projects.com   Selected Winter and Christmas Crafts for Kids Clay Pot Christmas Tree Christmas Tea Candle Light Paper Tube Snowman Craft Stick Reindeer Decoupaged Christmas Mice Picture Craft Stick Santa Claus Corrugated Cardboard Tea Light Holder Clay Pot Angel Decorated Christmas Candle Fun Foam Stocking Easy Folded Star 1 Easy Folded Star 2 Santa Claus Plant Poke Easy Folded Star 3 Snowman Plant Poke Paper Penguin Decoration Gingerbread Man Paper Tree Garland Star Ornament Bead Ornaments Paper Snowflakes Orange Pomanders Craft Stick Snowman Santa Paper Mobile ..........................................................................................................................................   Related Crafts and Projects: Click Here to Find More Recycling Crafts Creative ideas and crafts to recycle items such as bottle caps, wine corks, joghurt cups, tin cans, etc...
