Sew pigtails to the inside of the hat.
Put the hat on the snowman and fix it with a few stitches in the desired position.

Skates
Prepare a piece of wire with a diameter of 1-1.5 cm. The length of the wire will depend on the size of the boot.
Step 1.
Measure the length of the sole of the boot. Measure 4 such lengths on the wire, (fold this part in half) + length equals to the height of the boot. Cut off the resulting piece of wire.

Step 2.
Use pliers to tightly squeeze the spots where wire got bent. See at the photo.

Step 3.
Bend the wire at the right angle, as in the photo. Leave 1.5-2 cm long ends, cut off the excess.

Step 4.
Tighten the front part of the skate with pliers.

Step 5.
Insert the ends of the wire into the sole. You may use a thick needle to make a hole to help you.
If everything fits, pull out, lightly lubricate the ends of the wire with glue and stick it back in. Squeeze the boot slightly for better bonding.
