  3. STEP 1: • Test to see if you have 'packing snow,' which clumps together easily and isn't too wet. The snow must pack to make a snowman.

  4. STEP 2: • Shape a handful of snow into a ball. Continue adding more snow and packing the ball until it's too large to hold.

  5. STEP 3: • Place the ball on the snow in front of you and slowly roll it away from you. As more snow accumulates on the outside of your ball, pack the snow by pressing on it with your gloved hands.

  6. STEP 4: • Repeat for the midsection and head. The bottom should be the biggest ball, and the top should be the smallest.

  7. STEP 5: • Pack some extra snow between the layers to make them stick together. Place sticks down the center where the sections meet if your snowman is having trouble standing straight.

  8. STEP 6: • Give the snowman a face. Use coal, rocks, buttons or anything dark and round for the eyes. A horizontal stick or twig will make a good mouth, and a carrot is fine for the pointy nose. If you don't have a carrot, a banana or a candy cane will do the job.

  9. STEP 7: • Cover the top of his head with an old plant for hair, or give him a knit hat to wear. Top hats will blow away unless secured.

  10. STEP 8: • Add arms, legs and other accessories. Push sticks into the sides of the middle section and hang old mittens on the ends, then place boots at the bottom for legs. Also consider adding items such as a shirt, a scarf or sunglasses.
