Easy DIY Snowman Wreath from ONLY Dollar Tree Supplies
This "fluffy Frosty" Dollar Tree DIY snowman wreath idea is so cute, so easy, and so cheap to make! We'll show you how to make a snowman wreath in just a few minutes and for around $10. Make it as a Christmas wreath, then leave it up as a winter wreath until the snow melts (but this snowman won't melt like Frosty!)
Ingredients
- 1 Dollar Tree snowman wreath form
- 1 small sheet of black faux leather faux fur, or black felt (Dollar Tree)
- 1 small red scarf or strip of felt or fleece Dollar Tree, or recycle one you have
- 3 Dollar Tree microfiber duster/mop pad cloths
- Hot Glue Gun/glue sticks
- Wire cutter optional
- Scissors
Instructions
- Use wire cutters to clip off the arms or bend the wire arm sections until they pop off.
- Cut the mop pad into sections -- 3 sections will make fluffier snowman, 4 sections will fit the frame more narrowly.
- Place the cloth mop pad fluffy side down on your work surface, then place the wreath form on top. Using plenty of hot glue, attach one section of the mop pad to the front of the wreath, wrapping the entire front of the frame and the edges with the fluffy microfiber cloth. (You can see what it looks like here from the back.)
- Repeat this process around the entire lower section of the snowman wreath form.
- Continue gluing the mop pad to the upper circle section of the wreath form until it is completely covered.
- Cut a piece of faux leather/fur/felt a little bit larger than the square part of the hat.
- Glue the square of material to the front of the hat, then wrap it around the edges of the hat section and secure the excess to the back.
- Cut a piece of material the width of the wire wreath form hat brim and a couple of inches long. Roll this piece of the hat material into thirds and hot glue to secure in place, covering the wire on the bottom of the hat.
- Tie the scarf around the neck section and trim the end as needed.
- Hang the snowman wreath on a hook or wreath hanger.

Seasonal Swap: Change the scarf color and accessories to match different seasons or holidays.
Snow Family: Craft a trio or group of snowmen wreaths for a charming family display.
Personalized Touch: Add small ornaments, mini stockings, or a personalized name tag for an extra special touch.
