Stack two eggs, flat, cut sides together, on top of each other and secure together with a toothpick, placed from the top straight down the center of the eggs. Create a top hat for the snowman with a thin larger circle and slightly smaller chunk stacked on top of each other. Secure the pieces together by using a toothpick, leaving some of the toothpick sticking out of the bottom. Set the hat on top of the snowman using the excess toothpick to secure it to the snowman. Cut a small, thin, triangular piece of carrot to use as the nose for the snowman and press in into place. Cut an olive into the shapes you desire for eyes and button and press onto snowman. Add sprigs of parsley to the sides of the snowman for arms.

Now glue the Styrofoam balls to the blue paper so that the snowman appears to be standing in the middle of the puddle, and allow to dry. Once dry, insert arms into base of snowman, and glue on all the other pieces. For the Earmuffs, fold red pipe cleaner in half, and twist together, then bend into an arch shape.
