First, let’s get started with the snowman ornament supplies you will be needing:
- Clear ornament
- Scissors
- White shreds of paper
- Black felt
- Black marker
- Orange markers
- Faux holly berries (not shown)
- Hot glue gun

To begin with, the first thing you will need to do is fill the ornament with the paper shreds. I added the paper a little at a time to make sure that it wouldn’t get clogged at the top. I also used a pencil to help push the paper in to make sure I fit in a good amount.
Next, close the ornament and cut out a mini felt top hat. I then hot glued the felt top hat to the top of the ornament.
Once that was glued down, I then glued the faux holly berries to the front of the hat.

Finally, I used my black and orange markers and then I was done with my snowman ornament. Honestly, I love how this snowman ornament turned out, it’s just too cute. Additionally, it’s quick to make, so even impatient crafters will enjoy creating it.
And just like that your snowman ornament is ready to hang! It’s adorable, festive, and handmade with love perfect for gift giving, tree decorating, or even as a fun holiday keepsake. I’d love to see how yours turns out so if you make one share it with me on Instagram. Make, create, and fill your holidays with fun, warmth, and endless joy!
