Supplies:
- 3 – 20mm wooden beads

- Twine

Snowman Ornament Directions:
Use the black marker to draw “eyes” on one of the beads.
Use the orange marker to draw the “nose” underneath the eyes.
Use the black marker to draw a mouth under the “eyes”.
Cut a 12 inch length of twine.
Tie a double knot, making a 1-2 inch loop, leaving about ¼ inch of twine hanging off the end.
Thread the bead that you just made the snowman face on through the unlooped end of the twine. Thread it up over the ¼ inch of twine from the previous step too.
NOTE: If you are having trouble threading the bead, this is where the tape comes in. Wrap a piece around the bottom of the twine where you are threading the beads. It will help them slide on easier.
