Supplies:
Delta Ceramcoat Paint:
white
black
tangerine
2 Folk Art Mittens
Plug (nose)
1/8" Yard Black Felt
Black Marking Pen
1 3/4" Knob
DecoArt Snow-Tex
Scrap of Material (scarf)
Hot Glue
Masonite or thin wood scrap
BEGIN:
Cut base out of masonite (or other thin wood). Paint base and knob (head) white. Paint mittens
black. Paint plug (nose) orange (tangerine). (Tip: Using a tiny bit of hot glue, attach mittens,
knob and nose to a popsicle stick for easier painting).
FACE:
After the head is dry, using a toothpick or stylus (or even the handle end of a paintbrush) and
black paint, make 2 dots for the eyes. (See face pattern) Using a black permanent marker,
draw the eyebrows, mouth and make 3 freckles on each cheek. Use a little blush on each cheek.
Using a toothpick, place a white dot on each eye.
HAT and SCARF:
Cut Snowball's scarf out of material - 1" wide by 12" long.
Using a heavyweight black felt, use Pattern C to cut the hat pieces out of the felt. To assemble hat:
Fold Piece #1 in half lengthwise. (see first picture below) Use a couple small drops of glue inside
the piece to keep it folded. Overlap the back joint and hot glue it together...it will now be a small
circle. (see second picture below) Using Piece #2, clip the corners off (see dotted lines on pattern)
and push it up inside the Piece #1 you just created. Piece #2 is now the top of the hat. Hot glue
it in a few spots to the inside of Piece #1. Lay this piece centered on top of Piece #3. With needle
and thread, whipstitch the top of the hat to Piece #3 (just a few stitches will do). Add a bit of
SnowTex to top of hat for snow, if desired.
ASSEMBLY:
Hot glue head to base (see picture for placement). Glue a mitten on each side of his head. Glue
nose to center of face. Fold scarf in half lengthwise and tie around Snowball's neck, cutting the
ends to the length you desire. Center hat on his head...hot glue in place.
