Make this gorgeous winter wreath covered in cozy yarn and playful glittery snowballs. The snowman in the center steals the show!
Winter is fast approaching and I like to have a wreath for my front door that can go beyond Christmas. This DIY snowball winter wreath is so cute and can be used at Christmas and all through January.
Let me show you how to make it! (some affiliate links included below)
Materials Needed
- 14–16 Inch Foam Wreath Form
- Foam Balls: 4 inches (snowman body), 2.875 inches (snowman head), 2 inches, 1 inch,
- Snowman Hat
- Plaid Ribbon
- Mod Podge
- Yarn
- Pom Pom Trim
- Mini Snowflakes
- Hot Glue Gun + Glue Sticks
- Glitter Snow or Glitter + Epsom Salt
Instructions
Watch this short video tutorial to see how the project comes together.
Step 1: Cover the foam wreath form with yarn. I used two colors just for fun, but anything goes for this part. Alternatively, you could cover the wreath form with fabric strips or ribbon.
Step 2: Hot glue the 4 inch foam ball into the center of the wreath, then glue the 2.875 inch ball on top of that. I cut a small part off the bottom of the 2.875 inch ball to help it sit better on top of the larger one.
Step 3: Glue the rest of the foam balls onto the wreath form in a random pattern.
Step 4: Brush Mod Podge onto all of the foam balls and sprinkle fake snow onto the glue, working in small sections so the glue doesn’t dry before you have time to cover it with snow.
Step 5: Glue the snowman’s hat and scarf into place.
Step 6: Add a pom pom garland across the top and glue on mini snowflakes or other fun decorations. It would be cute to spell out “Let it Snow” on the garland too!
Step 7: (Optional) Add a face to the snowman using small buttons, beads, pins, googly eyes or whatever else suits your fancy.
Of course there are a hundred ways you could take this idea and change it up. That’s what makes these crafts so fun. If you make your own version of this wreath, I’d love it if you sent me a picture. It’s so amazing how people can be so creative and it never gets old to me. I love this little community of craft lovers that we have here, so please don’t hesitate to reach out.
Happy crafting!

Hobby Lobby has a section of small Christmas tree decorations meant for 2-3 foot trees. That is where I would look.
