Snowman Stained Glass Windows
Looking for a Winter or Christmassy craft for children, then why not try out this snowman stained glass window activity.
Snowman Stained Glass Windows – Christmas and Winter crafts for kids
What you need:
- Dark coloured paper – blue or black
- Tissue Paper – variety of colours
- Scissors
- Glue sticks
- Pencil
- Hole puncher
- googly eyes
- Stars
What you do:
- Draw your design onto the dark coloured paper
- Cut out the design, I actually did this for my children (5 & 2), I usually insist on them doing the cutting but this part of the project can be a little tricky for little fingers.
- Punch lots of little holes all over the sheet for snowflake or use a snowflake punch.
- Cut or tear the tissue paper in smaller pieces.
- Cut a piece of white tissue paper to the size of the original sheet of paper
- Glue around the edges of each space
- Stick the tissue paper onto the page.
- Stick the white piece of tissue paper so that it fully covers the back of the sheet of paper
- Flip the page over and glue on googly eyes, a nose and a mouth (scraps of coloured paper) and stars for buttons on the snowman’s body.
- Display the finished snowman on a window!
For an alternative to a snowman why not try our Christmas tree version of this project.

Our Little House in the Country
Hi, I’m Ciara — writer, homemaker, and the heart behind Our Little House in the Country. I share slow, seasonal living from our cozy corner of the Irish countryside, where life is a little messy, a little magical, and deeply real. Whether it’s a teen-friendly recipe, a lived-in home moment, or a reminder to let go of perfection, this space is about embracing the everyday and finding joy in what’s already here. Come in, kick off your shoes, and stay a while — the kettle’s always on.

Very Cute! I am always looking for great crafts to try with my boys (especially since I am NOT a crafty person!) and this one looks like one we could definitely do. I’m glad I saw your link at the G.R. linkup.

This is really cute. It looks like it was a fun project. My daughter is too young for it, but I’m pinning for others.
