This is certainly one of my favorite DIY decor I made this year. I mean, look at that – it’s so pretty, it looks like a store-bought piece. Check out the video tutorial below if you want to learn how to make this DIY snowman for the holidays. 

Materials:

• 2 – Dollar Tree vases, one 4″ large and one 3 1/2″ small
• 1 – 4″ round mirror
• glitter silver contact paper
• red berry with greenery
• silver glitter berries
• red glitter ribbon
• silver glitter
• sparkling crystal glitter
• flickering teapot candle
• hot glue gun
• Aleene’s clear tacky glue
• Aleene’s ultimate adhesive
• silicone tipped tweezers
• small thread cutter scissors

Directions:

Step 1

To start, make sure to remove all the labels from the glass vase. Next, pour a little bit of tacky glue into both of the vases, then spread the glue inside, from top to bottom, using a damp brush. After this, gently sprinkle the glitter inside, shaking it in between, to make sure you get a thin and even layer. Once done, attach the smaller vase to the larger vase using the ultimate adhesive. Let it dry overnight. In the meantime, make the snowman’s hat.

Step 2

Grab a lid of a hairspray (or anything you have that you can use for the hat) and cover it with the glitter silver contact paper. Cover the wrong side of the mirror as well with this paper. After this, attach them to make the shape of the hat using hot glue. Decorate the hat with a red glitter ribbon and some Christmas-themed greeneries and berries. Now, decorate the snowman as well with the red glitter ribbon and some Christmas-themed pins. Lastly, put the tealight inside, then place the hat on top to finish the project.
