Instructions:

Gather all supplies. Basecoat the three cardboard jewelry boxes with white acrylic craft paint. Set aside to dry and apply a second coat, if necessary.
Place the craft stick at the top one-third of the tall jewelry box and draw a line with a pencil.
Basecoat the craft stick and top one-third of the tall jewelry box with black acrylic craft paint. Let dry, and apply a second coat, if necessary.
Once the paint is dry, attach the three box lids to the three box bases with a glue gun and glue sticks. Glue the black craft stick on the tall box as the hat brim. If using liquid craft glue, please allow additional time for drying.
Using scissors, cut out a carrot shape from orange craft felt. Select six small black buttons and attach two to each snowman for the eyes. Attach the eyes and noses onto the snowmen with a glue gun and glue sticks.
Measure a 5” by 9” rectangle from red craft felt, then cut out with scissors. This will become the large snowman’s hat.
Attach the craft felt rectangle to the large snowman with the seam at the back, securing with a glue gun and glue sticks.
Cut a 10” length of natural jute twine, tie at the top of the craft felt rectangle. Secure with a knot and trim any long ends.
Measure and cut a 6” length of chenille stem, then attach to both sides of the small box with a glue gun and glue sticks. Glue a pom pom on top of the cut ends of the chenille stem to create earmuffs.
Using a permanent black marker, draw on the coal mouths for each of the three snowmen. You can also use black paint and the end of a paintbrush.
Glue the large and tall snowman boxes together, lining them up on the side. Attach the small snowman to the front of the other two snowmen with a glue gun and glue sticks.
Snip and rip plaid fabric into two strips that are approximately 3” wide by 18” long. Cut into the fabric ½” with scissors, then tear the fabric into strips. This will produce a frayed edge.
Glue the two short ends of the fabric strips together to create one 36” length of fabric, which will become the snowman’s scarf. Glue the back of the box trio.
Tie the plaid fabric scarf around the trio of snowmen, securing it in the front with a glue gun and glue sticks. Trim any long ends of the scarf with scissors.
Basecoat a small wooden snowflake with white acrylic craft paint. Let dry, and apply a second coat, if necessary.
