Paper Doily Snowman Craft

This Paper Doily Snowman Craft is a great preschool or kid’s craft for winter. It’s easy to make and so cute on display. 

Doily Snowman Craft

This snowman craft for kids is the perfect winter craft for little kids and preschoolers. Winter can be dark and dreary, so I like to brighten the house with cute winter crafts like Candy Bar Snowmen, Salt Dough Melted Snowman, or a Paper Plate Snowman Craft for kids to make.

This doily snowman is the cutest. My little guys’ preschool teachers did this craft with the kids and I fell in love with it. Preschool teachers are the best.

Supplies Needed

• 12″x18″ long dark blue or black sheet of construction paper or two taped-together
• doilies – three different-sized
• buttons – You’ll need smaller black buttons for the mouth and eyes. Use an orange button for the nose. I used a small orange button, but a bigger one would be cute, or I would use a triangle-shaped orange button. Use larger buttons for the belly.
• brown pipe cleaner – Cut into four pieces – 2 long and two short

Equipment Needed

Glue stick or other glue

Instructions:

• Glue the three doilies with the largest at the bottom, the medium-sized one in the middle, and a small one on top – onto your large piece of paper

• Glue larger buttons to the middle and bottom doily
• Glue smaller black buttons as a mouth and eyes
• Add a small orange button for the nose

• Twist the two short pieces around the larger pieces of pipe cleaner, making snowman arms
• Glue the pipe cleaner arms onto the paper
