These wooden spool snowmen ornaments have an old-timey look that kinds and adults alike will love. Be sure to allow the paint to dry all the way before stringing the snowmen together so that they dangle well and don’t stick together.

Things you’ll need:
Wooden spools
Narrow ribbon
Large brown button
Permanent Markers in orange, black and red
Embroidery needle with a large eye
White acrylic paint
Paintbrush

Things to do:
1. On a covered work surface, paint the spools with two thin coats of white paint, allowing them to dry between coats and being sure to cover all sides of the spools.

2. Thread the ribbon onto the needle and then thread through the bottom of the button and up through the spools. Pull out a loop of ribbon and knot at the top of the spools in a know large enough that it wont pull through the hole in the spool. Thread the ribbon back through the spools and back through a hole in the button.


3. Knot under the button and trim the ribbon tails.
