Cork Snowman

Just becauuse the weather outside may be frightful, doesn't mean you can't still make a snowman! Using cork sheets and a few crafty supplies, kids and parents can enjoy a snow day making their own cork snowman or snowwoman. Add some ribbon and the decorations can double as ornaments for you or someone special.

Create Your DIY Cork Snowman

• Trace two circles (one large, one smaller) to create the shape of your snowman on your cork sheet.
• Use scissors to cut out around the two circles leaving them connected in the center.

• Use white paint to cover parts of twig arms with snow.
• Use a hot glue gun to glue 2 buttons onto the belly of the snowman.
