Christmas Snowman Decorations



The reason for the association of Snowman with Christmas is not recorded in history. The origin of the word Snowman is not exactly known, though it is believed that the word came into existence between 1820-1830. Snow became entangled with Christmas only in the 19th century when Santa Claus was identified as coming from the North Pole. It was perhaps around this time when children started building Snowmen on the eve of Christmas.

Today Snowman decoration has also become an integral part of Christmas. Mostly children do the Christmas Snowman Decorations. Watching children frolicking in snow and trying hard every time to put Snowman in his perfect form is a wonderful sight. However, snow doesn't happen everywhere around the world during Christmas. But this does not let the spirit of children down from making Christmas Snowman decorations. They make snowman crafts and add another adornment to Christmas decorations. Here is a simple method:

  • Paper plate Snowman

Things required:

  • 2 white paper plates
  • Construction paper (black, red) or wrapping paper
  • An orange pipe cleaner (for the nose)
  • A short length of yearn or ribbon
  • Hole punch
  • Marker or crayons
  • Scissors
  • Glue
  • Optional: googly eyes, large buttons


Steps:

  • On one of the paper plates, cut off the outer rim, making a smaller plate.
  • Punch a hole near the rim on both plates.
  • Tie the two plates together, using the yarn (or ribbon).
  • On black construction paper, draw and then cut out a top hat and two boots.
  • On colored construction paper (or gift wrap paper), draw and then cut out two mittens.
  • Glue the hat, boots and mittens on the snowman.
  • Either glue on googly eyes or draw eyes.
  • Draw a mouth.
  • For the nose, cut a short length from an orange pipe cleaner.
  • Stick the pipe cleaner through the plate to secure it
  • If the plate is too tough, make a tiny hole with the tip of the scissors.
  • For the buttons, you can cut out shapes from construction paper, use round stickers, glue on real buttons, or simply draw them.
  • You now have a cute Christmas snowman decoration!
