I know some of you know Jessica Jane and her work. If you aren't familiar with her ornaments, you need to get on it. I already have a little mini collection :)
Well, the first time I ever made a Snowman Ornament was with her. She was the one who inspired me with all her craftiness. (So thanks, Jessi)
Here is a little tutorial on how to make this.
Make three balls out of polymer clay (simple enough, right?)
I made him a top hat, then I used a jewelry eyepin and pushed it through the hat and balls.
I made a rectangle out of clay and stamped my son's name in it.
I cut three pieces of wire and twirled them together for an arm. Then repeated for his second arm.
I made him a nose and other things out of clay. I baked him at 275 for about 10 minutes. Removed him and let him cool. Then painted and bedazzled him up.
Here is the finished product:
