These paper doily snowmen are such a fun craft to make with the kids this winter!

It occurred to me the other day that other than our Snowman Suncatchers – we haven’t made enough snowmen crafts! So here’s one that uses paper doilies. You will need:
- Colored card
- Glue stick
- Paper doilies (preferably in two sizes)
- Scissors
- Circle paper punches (we used a 1″ punch for the buttons and a ½” punch for the eyes)
- Glitter glue (optional – but it looks so pretty!)
Start by gluing the doilies to a piece of card. One or two larger ones for the body, a smaller one for the head – depending on size of the doilies.
Then add the body parts! I cut out a black hat, red scarf, stick arms and a carrot nose. My son used the paper punches to cut out eyes and buttons.
The next day we decided to add some glitter glue snow!
I love the finished effect!
As usual I made the craft alongside my son – but the end results look pretty similar! I used a slightly different glitter glue but I think I prefer his choice!
You did not indicate what size paper or what size doilies. I am trying to make Christmas cards using this idea but my doilies 4 and 6 inches are too big even for a large card. Any suggestions? Thanks
