Snowman

♥ Day 10; Snowman

Leave a Comment

Hey Lovelies! A Winter Wonderland without snowman, is that even possible?! I just had to make one, and I could have done that in so many ways, like clay, amigurumi, plushy, etc. Way too many options. And then I thought of making them from those small pompom’s you can buy at the story, easy and quick to make, since Christmas is getting close now, we might not have that much time on our hands anymore. So let’s just go to this craft en check this one off.

Snowman DIY

For this DIY you’ll need:
♥ 2 pompom’s, 1,5cm & 2,5cm.
♥ Bit of Clay in Orange, Light Blue and Black.
♥ (Hot) Glue.
♥ Light Blue Yarn. (Optional)

DIY Snowman

Glue the two pompom’s together. I like to use hot glue here, that makes life easier, it can be a struggle to glue pompom’s together.

Clay

From clay, make a Carrot for its nose, a few small “rocks” of black clay for the eyes and buttons. I also decided I wanted to give him a hat, make this one as well. Just make a flat circle and a small cylinder out of black clay, put a “ribbon” around in a color you like.

Now glue all the clay parts in the right places!

Scarf

This is totally optional, but I went ahead and make a braid of some Light blue yarn. And tied this around the neck of the snowman.

That’s all for this craft. Now go ahead and glue the snowman on top of the snowball.

♥ Assembling

Whenever I start assembling Amigurumi, I’d like to use sewing pins to position all parts first until I’m happy. Then I will sew them on. I recommend you do so as well.

Sew on his nose, slightly in between his eyes. Then sew on his arms to the sides of his body. After, dress him up with his hat and scarf.
If you want to hang it, don’t forget to add a loop to the top.

I hope you enjoyed today’s pattern! I think it’s adorable. If you decided to make any of the blogmas amigurumi, please show me on Twitter or Instagram  with #DelinleaDIY. I’d love to see what you make using my patterns.
