A Snowman on the First Day of Spring??

I had been hoping for a nice snowy day to post about my snowman, but since today is the first day of spring I think I'm out of luck!  I couldn't wait till next year to share my little friend though!

This little guy was simple to make and can easily be adapted to add character or made to match your home's decor.  For example, I gave him a burlap scarf but you could make a knit scarf or even lace if you wish! 

I started by making three balls of yarn slightly different sizes and connecting them with a tube.  You could use a paper towel tube, but I found this smaller one I chose to use.  Be sure to add a little adhesive to secure the tube and yarn balls together.  I chose to use hot glue but I think any type of glue would work.

I then used twine wrapped floral wire for the arms.  

For his face I used felt chair pads (the little black spots to keep chair legs from scratching the floor).  His nose is my favorite part...I found a toggle button and painted it orange! Then I simply added a little burlap scarf. 

A black spray painted hat and he was complete!
