Our Experience With This Olaf Ornament Craft

While my family loved our Olaf ornaments, they also make a great gift. My little ones gave some to their teacher and grandparents. And it was a great Christmas gift idea, they loved it! Olaf isn’t an inanimate snowman, but a wonderful loveable character who helped Ana, Kristoff, and Sven on their epic journey. He may be a newer Disney Character, but my family adore him. And now he is a cherished part of Arendelle…and our house. This is such an easy gift too. Anyone who loves warm hugs and this loveable snowman is going to love this ornament.
