Snowman Peg Ornament: Tutorial
Step 1: Position the wooden pegs on to a glass as shown within the image.
Paint the peg white.
Depending on the consistency of your white acrylic paint, you may need to add two or three layers of paint.
Step 2: Using the end of your paintbrush OR a very fine brush, add a sequence of three well spaced black dots for buttons.
Add a further two black dots for eyes and then an upside down dot arch for a mouth.
Complete the face with a cute orange nose.
Step 3: Once the snowman has thoroughly dried, tie a piece of ribbon around its neck and a trim to size.
Tie a piece of twine, string or even wire around the back of the ribbon scarf to then hang upon the Christmas Tree.
The Snowman Peg Ornament is now complete!
