- For making the eyes, dip a cotton pad into the blue paint and dab it to make the eyes on the bulb surface.
- Dip another cotton pad in black paint; use it to make a point at the center of the bulb surface as the nose.
- Now, take a cotton swab and wet it. Dip it first into red paint and then in the white paint so as to give light pinkish color to the swab. Dab it to make two dots for the cheeks one on each side of nose and slightly below it.
- Use the toothpick to make a smile with red paint. Dip another toothpick in black paint and use it to make some lines over eyes.
- Now, place the hat by stretching its center over the socket and pulling it downwards near the bulb and socket junction and glue it.
- Glue the ribbon strip around the socket. At the top of the socket, pinch the ribbon together. Let the glue get dry.
- Put some Christmas ornamental scraps on the hat, in the front. It will make it to look attractive and also mask the socket of the light-bulb. Hence, your little snowman is ready.
