Lay your hoop over your fabric of choice
and cut it out.
You will end up with your three hoops
looking like this.
Next I cut a long triangle out of the felt.
To keep the edges of my fabric from fraying and showing, I hot glued them to the hoop.
So your three hoops end up looking like this.
Then lay out your face on the smallest hoop
and hot glue them down.
This is a no sewing project which I love!
Then hang the hoops up on the wall and you have a 3-dimensional snow man!
I tried to use the wacky tac stuff to hang my hoops but it would not hold the larger hoops. I ended up just using a straight pen. For the scarf I hung it on one of those 3m hooks and then used a few straight pens to anchor it better too.
Here is a side view. Now you could paint the hoops white if you wanted, but I like the look of them as they came. I added the vinyl hat and snowflakes. I cut the hat by hand, and used my Cricut for the snowflakes.
The project was super fast to do. The actual snowman probably only took me a little over an hour to put together. The only thing I would have liked differently is to have the middle circle smaller than the bottom one. When I went to buy the hoops at Michaels, they didn't have any of the 12" size in stock. And I didn't want to drive all over the place for that size, so I just went with what they had.
I hope you like my super, fast, easy, (inexpensive) Holiday wall art project! Thanks again for visiting me!
