[Paper-cutting] Snowman Santa
![[Paper-cutting] Snowman Santa](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/UcOAp2fIxsY/sddefault.jpg)
A snowman Santa made with papercutting that captivates with the beauty of its silhouette and playful use of color.
Using a template, cut out the shape of the snowman Santa, then apply torn red paper for the hat and outfit to give it a Santa-like look.
The key is the contrast between the clean outline and the rough texture of the torn-paper collage, which creates a warm expression.
Adding the hat’s trim or a snowy background will enhance the wintry feel even more.
The mood changes with your color choices and the size of the torn pieces, making it perfect for a brain workout.
A winter craft idea that sparks creativity.
Snowman made of origami – wall decoration
The origami snowman involves small parts to stick onto a backing sheet, making it a satisfying craft that’s also great for cognitive training for seniors.
You fold the main body from a single sheet of origami paper, then add a hat, scarf, and snowflakes made from different papers so you can enjoy mixing colors.
If you arrange cotton for the face as snow on the backing sheet, it adds three-dimensionality and softness for a warm finish.
Using a quarter of an 8-cut drawing paper sheet as the base gives just the right size, and displaying several side by side livens up the wall.
It’s a fun idea where individuality shines through color choices and layout.

Easy Paper Plate Snowman Wall Hanging
A snowman wall decoration made with paper plates that combines a three-dimensional look with cuteness—perfect for winter crafts.
Cut out a circle from the paper plate, leaving part of the inner section, then flip it upward to create a raised base for the face.
Cut felt into a long strip and snip slits at both ends to make a scarf, then wrap it around the neck.
Attach a triangular piece of origami for the nose.
Use round stickers for the eyes, draw the cheeks with crayon, and decorate the body with sparkly stickers to give the snowman an expressive look.
It’s an idea that allows older adults to bring a wintry feel indoors.
Swaying Snowman Wreath
Let’s make a wreath you can enjoy displaying not only at Christmas but throughout the winter.
The main motif is a snowman, so the key is to keep the edges rounded and make everything as circular as possible! You’ll need a paper plate, colored construction paper, masking tape, jute twine, fishing line (monofilament), paints, oil-based colored pens, a snowflake-shaped craft punch, double-sided tape, a utility knife, and scissors.
Instead of finishing it in a single day, aim to complete it over two to three days—you’ll be able to take your time and focus on the details.
Give it a try!
Fluffy snowman made with tissue paper

Here’s a craft idea for a snowman that could also become a wall decoration if you hang it with a string.
First, cut out the inside of a paper plate so only the rim remains, then glue on crumpled tissue paper.
Next, cut out a circular piece from construction paper for the head and a rectangular piece for the bucket hat.
Draw the face with a pen, attach the bucket, then glue it to the paper plate to finish.
It’s handy to pre-cut the tissue paper into sizes that are easy to crumple, but having the person making it tear the paper themselves can also be good finger exercise.

Let’s make a shaker snowman that you can use as an ornament for your tree.
For preparation, get two paper doilies and cut out the inside of one so it becomes just a frame.
Put sequins or any small parts you like into a clear bag, fold the corners, tape them down, and shape it into a circle.
Stack and glue them in this order: a full paper doily, the bag, and the doily frame.
Finish by adding a face, hat, scarf made from construction paper, and a string for hanging.
The paper doily part will be the snowman’s body.
Paper Plate Snow Globe

Let’s make a paper-plate snow globe that looks beautiful when hung on a window and lit from behind.
First, cut out the inner part of a paper plate and attach a circular piece of laminate film.
Next, from the back, cover the entire opening with tissue paper cut into a circle, and seal the adhesive edge with OPP tape.
Finally, stick a construction-paper snowman onto the front of the laminate film, and you’re done.
In this idea, colorful tissue paper is used for a vibrant finish, but I think it would also look lovely unified in blue tones to evoke snow.
