• Now lay your flattened pieces on a clean cookie sheet..
• One by one, take your orange & black puffy paint and paint on “snowman” embellishments like a hat, nose, dots for the mouth etc. on the clay pieces. You can also draw on other embellishments you see fit.
• Once done, set aside your cookie sheet covered in melted snowmen, in an undisturbed area to allow the clay to air dry for a few days. If need be – flip the snowman pieces over once a day, so it dries evenly on each side.
