A very simple piece of salt dough, which can be attributed to the school for the contest for the New Year. With her, the child will perfectly cope on his own. Making a snowman out of the salt dough with your own hands is perhaps even easier than any other craft.
Make a snowman’s hands out of thin twigs. They need to be inserted immediately because the dough is baked – then it will be impossible. You need to stick your nose out of a toothpick in advance. Eyes can be painted with acrylic or laid out from beads.
Voluminous crafts made from salt dough are baked longer than flat ones. When you get the snowman out of the oven, you will need to dry it for a day, and only then paint it. Consider this point if you make crafts for the school New Year’s contest to correctly calculate the time.
