There’s nothing quite like making your own Christmas decorations (and making your own Christmas cards is just as much fun).
This can be a great family Christmas tradition, with each family member making their own unique ornament each year. Think about how amazing your tree will look in a few years, and more importantly, how many memories will be made while making it.
If you want to make something simple that is almost guaranteed to turn out well (and isn’t expensive or time-consuming) – wood slice decorations are the way to go.
How to make a wooden snowman ornament
What you need:
- Wood slices – make your own or buy them from craft stores – this time of year, you won’t have a hard time finding them
- white acrylic paint
- permanent markers or paints in various colors
- paint brush
- clew
Step by step instructions
Store-bought wood slices usually come pre-drilled.
If you’re making your own cake slices, drill a hole first (or glue string to the ornament for an easy solution).
Paint the wood slices with white craft paint.Depending on the type of paint, more than one coat may be required.
Allow the paint to dry completely before moving on to the next step.
Use a black marker to draw a snowman’s face. Two eyes and a mouth.You can keep it “classic” with two dots for eyes and some smaller dots for mouths or you can create other fun faces.
We think the snowman would look cuter with rosy cheeks.Draw a pink circle on both cheeks. Cute right?
Almost done! Draw a triangle with an orange marker or paint pen – this will form the carrot’s nose.
