A snowman brings together a few colors into an instantly recognizable winter character: two white stacked snowballs, a black top hat, a little orange carrot nose, a red scarf, and coal buttons and eyes. It uses more beads than a single-color shape, so it is a nice step up once the basics feel easy.
