Do you wanna build a snowman??! Here's a simple wiggly snowman decoration made with "all scratch paper" materials. Grab your old papers and magazines and start an eco friendly holiday display.

Supplies:
white paper
old newspapers and magazines or find a black cardstock
scissors
glue
string or stapler
Steps:
Place a short sized white paper in landscape position. Fold it like an accordion.
Squeeze in and fold equally in half. Secure the center with a string or staple to hold.
Pull two ends inward and glue them together.
Make another one, then stick them together to make a round piece.

Take another piece of paper and cut in half.
Place in a portrait position and again make an accordion.
Make another one and repeat the same steps.
Now, you have a smaller piece.
Stick the two round pieces (one edge of the big one to one edge of the smaller one) together.
Then start looking for colorful parts from magazines. I started with the scarf. Stick it to where the two edges of the circles meet.

Then cut a hat out of any black part from an old magazine page. Attach it on top of the circles. Add some detail to the hat as you wish.
Next, attach the belt.
Lastly cut out and glue in place the orange nose, eyes, and mouth.
Hang it on your walls or doors. You can squeeze the sides repeatedly or tilt the snowman to have it wiggle.
