Super Cute Snowman Christmas Tree Decorations

I made these simple Christmas decorations using old bottle tops.

First I glued circles of paper onto the bottle tops and left to dry, Meanwhile I cut out little paper hats and coloured them in ( or you could use brown paper if you prefer). Then I drew on buttons and a carrot noses, I glued perler beads on as eyes and the hats. Finally I used a glue gun to glue the garden string on the backs.
