Hello dear readers and guests of the blog. We continue to prepare for the New Year, and today we will look at the question of how you can create everyone’s favorite winter character - the Snowman - with your own hands.

Of course, you will immediately say that the most popular way to make a snow hero is to sculpt it from snow. But it can be very cold outside, and besides, you can’t bring such work into the house, because it will melt.

Therefore, I want to offer you exclusively homemade creativity. Let's try to sew, knit, glue snowmen from different materials at hand. And you can use ready-made crafts to decorate your home, or festive table, as well as your loved ones or take part in various exhibitions in kindergartens and schools.

And be sure to involve your children in the process, because this is a very exciting and educational activity.

A super-issue has been prepared for you with detailed master classes for making funny Snowmen. So get ready, it's going to be hot! 😀

We will start our needlework from ordinary plastic cups. They are very suitable for creating a snow character. Especially if you take white cups as a basis.

This is very simple, and most importantly quick way manufacturing. At the same time, such souvenirs are excellent quality.

You will need:

• Plastic cups;
• Glue;
• Colored paper or cardboard;
• Scissors;
• Colored laces;
• Wire.

Manufacturing process:

1. Take the glass and turn it down. This will be the body and head of the future craft.

Or you can simply draw these elements with a felt-tip pen or sculpt them from plasticine.

3. Glue the parts onto the base. Using wire and colored laces, make a headphone handle. Glue it. Additionally decorate the product as you wish.

And hand-drawn options.

Or the cup can only be used as a body, but the head can be cut out of thick paper.

And now the most popular way to make a winter character from a large number of cups. The work is not difficult and even children can do it. But you need to prepare more disposable cups.

You will need:

• Plastic cups;
• Stapler;
• Hot glue;
• Thin scarf fabric or scarf;
• Colored paper;
• Scissors.

Manufacturing process:

1. Fasten the cups to each other using a stapler in the form of a circle with the bottoms facing inward. Choose the diameter at your discretion, depending on the size of the craft you need.

2. Add cups in the next row to the resulting circle, fastening everything with a stapler. Continue this work, but the first round sphere should have a hole so that the souvenir stands stable.

3. As a result, you should end up with a large ball with a hole at the bottom. Using the same technology, make another ball, but with a smaller diameter than the previous one.

4. Glue both balls together.

5. Tie a scarf around your neck or wide tape, you can also sew a scarf yourself from fabric.

6. Now make a hat from colored paper or cardboard, following the photo instructions. Cut out eyes, buttons and roll a carrot cone out of orange cardboard.

7. Glue the prepared parts.

8. Your work is ready. And put a garland inside, then the snowman will also glow.

Thanks to this technology, you can create funny and mischievous characters. Turn on your imagination and create!

I hope you enjoy this creativity and inspire you to create new crafts.

Craft “Snowman” from papier-mâché. Step-by-step instructions for beginners

Remember, in childhood, fashionable technology for the manufacture of various products, there was papier-mâché technology?! She is still trending. After all, the most basic materials are needed for execution, and the whole process will not take much time.

Well, the souvenirs turn out amazing, you can’t even immediately tell what they are made of. Just a miracle! For the New Year, crafts in the papier-mâché style are just right!

If you are ready, then let's quickly start the process.

You will need:

• Toilet paper;
• PVA glue;
• Cotton wool;
• Paints;
• Cardboard;
• A piece of fabric;
• Scissors.

Manufacturing process:

1. Prepare all materials. Cut out a blank for the legs from cardboard.

2. Narvit toilet paper into pieces.

3. Add glue, stir the contents.

4. From the resulting mass, mold three balls of different diameters. Glue the first ball onto the cardboard base, the second onto the first, and the third onto the second.

5. Now pinch off pieces of cotton wool and coat them with glue. Cover the workpiece with pieces.

Additionally, the cotton wool can be coated with glue already on the product to smooth out all the unevenness.

6. Dry the workpiece. Meanwhile, cut out handles and a spout from paper or cardboard. The nose, by the way, can also be made using the papier-mâché technique.

7. Once the product is dry, it can be painted with white paint. Or don't do it. If you choose painting, first paint and dry the souvenir again. And only then draw the eyes, mouth, eyebrows, smile and buttons. Glue the handles and tie a piece of fabric (this is a scarf). If you choose the second option, then do absolutely everything except painting.

The craft turned out to be very bright, and the snowman looks like it’s alive.

You can also make souvenirs in the following images.

Now we will create from a material accessible to everyone - from paper. I’ll say right away that paper crafts There are a lot of them in the form of a Snowman, so we won’t be able to sort them all out. This needs to be written as a separate article. Therefore, here and now we will consider the most popular manufacturing methods.

5. Now glue the resulting parts together.

7. Glue it on the head. Make a scarf from a blue strip and secure it around your neck.

And here is a diagram for its manufacture.

Of course, do not forget that snow heroes can decorate not only the interior, but also. Therefore, make different applications from colored paper.

Or pendants made from ordinary wide stripes look very good. And there is nothing complicated here. Cut out wide stripes different sizes, glued them together and decorated them. Now the souvenir is completely ready.

You can also use only one wide strip, and use small chocolates as a base. It turns out to be a sweet gift.

Or think about products made from ordinary circles, when you bend them and glue them together. Thanks to this technology, you can make a toy for the Christmas tree.

Or these striped Snowmen.

And this is the technology for making paper striped balls.
