Easy Mickey & Minnie Snowman Craft for Disney Winter DIY Fun
Love Disney winter DIY fun? Mickey and Minnie are the perfect snowman design for this season. You can make them with just a few supplies, some patience, and of course lots of love! Let's get started!
What You Need to Make a Mickey & Minnie Snowman Craft
- Two White Fluffy Socks
- ¼-inch Red Ribbon
- ⅛ yd Red Velvet
- ½-inch Red and White Polka Dot Ribbon, optional
- Small Amount of Polyfill
- 2 Bamboo Skewers
- 4 tiny Neon Green Pom Poms, optional
- 2 small Neon Green Pom Pom, optional
- White Embroidery Thread
- 4 Rubber Bands
- 13 small Black Beads
- Scraps Orange Craft Foam
- Hot Glue Gun & Glue
- Scissors
- Fabric Pencil
- Ruler
How to Make This Mickey & Minnie Snowman Craft
- Working with one sock at a time, fill the sock full, but not packed, with the polyfill. Using the rubber bands, section off the sock into fairly equal ⅓ sections.
- Pull up an about ½ inch ball of sock and stuffing on each side of the toe end of the sock and, with the embroidery thread, tie a thread around the base of the pull-up and tie tightly to make the ears.
- Slide a bamboo skewer through the center of the sock, trimming it to be even with the opening of the snowman.
- Tug the edges of the opening of the sock toward the skewer and hot glue it in place, closing the bottom up.
- Make a tiny bow with the red ribbon and hot glue it in place in front of one ear, designating that snowman as Minnie (and thus a snowwoman).
- Cut a ½ inch wide section of red velvet about 8 inches long. Fold this rectangle in half longways and hot glue in place. Wrap this around the non-bow-adorned snowman just under the head and hot glue in place to make a scarf. You can repeat this for the second snowman (Minnie) or you can use the red with white polka dots ribbon to make a scarf. If you want to add baubles to the ends of the scarves, you can use the neon green pom poms to make a teeny tiny mickey shape. I ultimately decided that the scarf wasn’t the look I was going for on Minnie.
- Make a skirt for the Minnie snowwoman by folding your velvet in half, then drawing a 5-inch diameter quarter circle, with one end on the fold line. Then draw a parallel 3-inch diameter quarter circle on the fold line about 3 inches away. Then square off the end not on the fold line, about 5-inches from the fold line.
- Cut this rounded rectangle shape out then hem the edges, as necessary.
- Wrap this shape around the top of the middle and bottom balls of the Minnie sock snowwoman and hot glue in place along the back.
- Cut thin tiny triangles from the orange craft foam and hot glue the triangle to the center of the head pointing off to one side.
- Add two small black beads to each face above the carrot nose, 3 beads under the nose for a smile and 3 beads down the front of the Mickey gnome for buttons. Then display and enjoy!
