We have many Christmas traditions at our house. One of our favorite traditions is making unique Christmas decorations with the kids. If you’re looking for a fun project, try one or more of these easy snowman ornaments this holiday season.
In one of the houses we lived in a few years back, I put up a tree in EVERY room of the house. Granted, some were only 2′ tall. The small Christmas trees in one of the bathrooms had a snowman theme. Since we were on such a tight budget, we created most of the ornaments ourselves. Great memories!
I hope these will inspire you this Christmas season! Please join our 12 Days of Christmas Crafting Facebook Group, and share photos of any snowman Christmas ornaments that you’ve made!
