Our personalizable snowman ornaments are 4½ inches tall. The Christmas snowman ornaments are a snowy looking Christmas stocking with a white cuff that looks like melting snow. Just below the cuff on the snowman ornaments there is a midnight blue space and then the toe of the stocking is snowy white. In the center of the Christmas ornament is a small snowman wearing a red Santa hat and a green and white striped scarf. The little snowman has pink cheeks, a pink nose, black buttons and brown stick arms. Behind the little snowman is a decorated Christmas tree. On the toe of the snowman stocking ornament is a small brown ginger bread cookie. The cuff of the personalizable snowman ornaments is 2 inches long and ¾ of an inch wide and is perfect for adding the name of someone very special. The personalizable snowman ornaments hang from a red cord.

Snowman Information.
Long ago, when toys were scarce and the closest neighbors could be miles away, children looked forward to the year’s first snowfall with great anticipation. This wonderful gift from heaven afforded them a chance to go sledding, but even more exciting, it gave them the opportunity to create a new companion, their very own snowman!
Each of the jolly fellows had its own distinct expression and life expectancy. With a carrot from the pantry, coal from the furnace, twigs from the yard, an old hat and sometimes a pipe borrowed from Grandfather, a child would magically build a snowman. Their man of snow would disappear when the weather warmed, but lived on in childhood memories.
Our snowy friends dance and that only children are able to see them. After a snowman has been built and left alone outdoors in the frigid air, he begins to come to life! The snowman dances to amuse and captivate the children who watch, for it brings happiness to his rather short life. So during Christmas, if your children seem to be staring out the window in a daze, do not worry, most likely a dancing snowman is entertaining them.
During the winter months, the snowman stands in the garden with his heart full of joy and snowflakes dancing around him. Children, dressed in warm winter jackets and thick wooly hats, laugh and throw snowballs. The snowman is the center of fun and games.
Unfortunately, winter ends, and spring arrives again. The children begin to desire the warm summer sun and hardly pay attention to the snowman. His heart becomes sad, and tears begin to roll down his cheeks. Soon, the tears gradually dry up. The next day, the snowman will disappear from the garden.

What is Snow?
Snow is a form of precipitation that consists of crystals of ice. These crystals, called snow crystals, grow from water vapor in clouds. Water vapor is the gaseous form of water, the form that water assumes when it evaporates. A snowflake consists of up to 100 snow crystals clumped together.
Particles of snow vary in size from crystals almost too small to see with the unaided eye to snowflakes 1 inch or more in diameter. Some of the tiniest crystals occur in ice fog, a fog that can form in the Arctic regions when the temperature is extremely low.
