How to make your Snowman Jar Craft
  1. Fill the peanut butter jar with cotton balls. Try to squish them into the jar tightly. Put the lid on the jar.
  2. Glue on two googly eyes.
  3. Cut a small orange triangle out of craft foam and glue it under the eyes as a nose.
  4. Cut some small circles out of black craft foam and glue them into a smile on your snowman.
  5. Cut a piece of felt that is able to wrap around the jar. Glue it into place towards the bottom of the jar.
  6. Roll the bottom of the sock up and fit it over the lid of the jar as a hat.
