Instructions

STEP ONE

  • Gather all supplies. Basecoat the jar portion of the mason jar with white acrylic craft paint. Basecoat the neck portion of the mason jar with black acrylic craft paint. Let dry and apply a second coat, if necessary.

STEP TWO

  • Basecoat the lid and ring portion of the mason jar with black acrylic craft paint. Let dry and apply a second coat, if necessary.

STEP THREE

  • Download and print the MASON JAR SNOWMAN PATTERNS, layer the larger circle hat brim onto black craft felt and cut out with scissors.

STEP FOUR

  • Place the mason jar upside down in the center of the black felt circle and trace around the opening with a white chalk pencil.

STEP FIVE

  • Cut out the center of the black craft felt circle with scissors.

STEP SIX

  • Place the hat brim around the neck of the mason jar, place the lid on top and then screw on the ring.

STEP SEVEN

  • Using scissors, cut out a carrot shape from orange craft felt. Colored cardstock, heavy fabric, or craft foam would work for this project as well.

STEP EIGHT

  • Select 2 large black buttons for the snowman eyes. Attach the buttons and carrot nose with a glue gun and glue stick. If using liquid craft glue, please allow additional time for drying.

STEP NINE

  • Snip and rip plaid fabric into one strip that is approximately 1” wide by 18” long and a second strip that is ½” by 10” long. Cut into the edge of the fabric ½” with scissors, then tear the fabric into strips. This will produce a frayed edge.

STEP TEN

  • Tie the larger piece of plaid fabric around the mason jar, securing just under the snowman’s carrot nose. Attach the smaller piece of plaid fabric around the snowman’s hat, securing with a glue gun and glue sticks.

STEP ELEVEN

  • Attach a large black button to the front of the snowman with a glue gun and glue sticks.

STEP TWELVE

  • To finish, secure a glittery snowflake charm to the snowman’s hat band with a glue gun and glue sticks.
