-small "jingle bell"
-googley eyes
-sharpie marker**
-orange clay
-some type of stuffing***

-Stuff the sock with cotton stuffing (as much as possible)
-Hot glue the open end of the sock together
-Tie the ribbon at 1/3 the way down
-Draw the rim of the hat where you want it*

*I drew mine about half way between the hot glued end and the bow

Construct Your Snowman: Part Two

-Color in your snowman's hat with sharpie
-Hot glue the bell* onto the top of your snowman and the eyes onto his face
-Mold the orange clay into a carrot nose shape
-Bake the clay in the oven or let it dry**
-Hot glue the nose onto the face
-Optional = Get some sequins to act as buttons on snowman

*Bell is optional because it has gotten annoying
**This is a different step for every one depending on what type of clay you have
