Step 1
|
Base: Tear off a 12" square of aluminum foil. Bunch together and press flat. Flatten out White FIMO® Soft. Place the foil base onto
White clay and cut out around. Flatten out another sheet of White clay and place over top. Trim. Blend seam if necessary.
|
Step 2
|
Mix one part Blue FIMO® Soft with four parts White FIMO® Soft to achieve a pastel blue.
|
Step 3
|
Striped Scarf: Flatten pastel blue and white clay to #7 (thickest) setting on pasta machine or 1/8" thick. Stack pastel blue on white.
Roll through pasta machine. Cut in half and stack again. Repeat this process two more times. Cut the stack into four equal sections
and stack one on top of the other. Turn stack so that stripes are vertical. Slice off sections to wrap around neckline for scarves. Also
use for patches and other embellishments on snow people.
|
Step 4
|
Adult Snow People: Roll a 1" and a 1/2" white clay ball. Stack the smaller ball on top of the larger. Add a small orange nose to
the center of the head. Press in eyes and draw in smile with needle tool. Bend a 2" wire in half to form a loop. Twist ends together.
Cut the “loop” apart with scissors to form a “Y”. Press wire into sides for arms.
|
Step 5
|
Little Snow People: Roll a 3/4" and a 3/8" white clay ball. Stack the smaller ball on top of the larger. Add eyes, nose and mouth as
above.
|
Step 6
|
Button Embellishments: Flatten a 1/4" pastel blue ball and press two holes in center. Place buttons where desired on snow people.
|
Step 7
|
Hat: Flatten a 3/4" wide strip of pastel blue and wrap around head of snowman. Trim off excess. Cut a slice off striped stack, then
trim to 1/4" wide. Wrap around hat for brim. Top off with a white ball for the tassel.
|
Step 8
|
8. Place your snowmen onto the base as shown in picture. Bake at 265°F (130°C) for one hour. Let cool and apply blush to face.
Idea: Create one snow person for each member of the family. Adjust size according to each member. You can personalize with
name if desired with a permanent marker after baking.
