One way of celebrating the season is making Christmas ornaments and crafts.  We always enjoy making old favorites but it’s also fun to have a few new ones like this Snowman ornament craft.    We are dipping our toes into farmhouse bead ornaments since we made our Bead Napkin Rings for Thanksgiving.

You can turn simple unfinished wood beads into an adorable DIY snowman ornament. This is a great snowman ornament craft to do with the kids or whip up up a batch of them yourself while sipping cocoa or eggnog.  Besides using these farmhouse bead ornaments to decorate the tree they make great package toppers.  And you can also add them to wreaths or swags of greenery for a little winter cheer. Make each one unique by switching up the face or adding different colors of ribbon.

 

What you will need for this snowman ornament craft:

 

Supplies needed:

  • 20 mm unfinished wood beads
  • White, acrylic paint
  • Black acrylic paint
  • Orange acrylic paint
  • Brown acrylic paint
  • Twine or string
  • Quarter-inch wide ribbon

Tools:

  • Wooden skewer

 

How to make a wooden snowman ornament:

 

Snowman ornament craft

 

Slide 3 wooden beads over the skewer, make sure you leave plenty of space in between so that you can paint all sides of the bead.  Give each bead a nice light coat of white paint and then allow them to dry.  Apply a second coat of paint and allow it to dry completely.

Slide your beads onto the String/twine.   Use the backend of a very small paintbrush to add black dots for the ice mouth and buttons.

Use the black backend of a small paintbrush again or you can also use the tip of the skewer to draw out a long orange carrot nose. Let your details dry well.  Optional: paint stick arms on each side of the buttons with light brown paint. 

 

 

Wrap a small piece of ribbon around the neck like a scarf and secure it into the place where you want it with a dab of glue. Tie several knots at the end of the string below your snowman so that it is larger than the hole on your beads and your snowman will not slip off the end of the string.   At the other end tie a loop with the string for hanging. 

Your wooden snowman ornament is now done and ready to enjoy.
