Now all you need to do not is sew the pieces onto that hat! (See picture for placement help)
Start with the eyes- Sew your two buttons on with black yarn or thread. en the eyes, about an inch down from the bottom of the eye Mouth- A way to make sure your mouth is the right shape is to sew on the ends first, making sure your mouth ends in the same place on each side of the face. Now secure the rest of the mouth down. Top hat- I personally do not like the brim to be secured to the hat, only the inside base of the hat, keeping the illusion of your snowman wearing a hat. With your hand inside the hat, keeping it open, sew on your top hat, tipped to the side just a bit. If you have any questions, please email Jessica Teal at ItsATealThing@yahoo.com.
