cotton balls
sticks or brown pipe cleaners
glue
scraps of material or felt
orange pipe cleaners
scissors

Gather materials. Unroll about 10 cotton balls With the ball end up, slowly wrap cotton around bottom of clothespin, forming the base of the snowman, gluing occasionally to hold cotton. When the base is desired size, repeat process for a middle section. Make this section smaller than the first. When this section is desired thickness, put a dab of glue on top of clothespin and hollow out the center of a regular cotton ball with your fingers. Place this on top of clothespin for a snowman head. Decorate with fabric scraps, felt, sticks, pipe cleaners, wiggle eyes, buttons, beads, etc.
