Origami Snowman instructions and tutorial

This Snowman model is an original model. It is easy to fold, and you can flatten it or give it a slight 3D form to make it stand up. Once your origami Snowman is folded, you can stick little bits of colored paper to make its nose (usually a orange carrot), eyes and mouth. You will be able to keep your Snowman for very long as it will not melt! ☃
