Make a paper chain link out of the strips of paper alternating colors. You can either staple the rings or use the tape to secure them.

Place a dab of glue on the bottom and sides of the cupcake liner then place the ball inside the liner. Then place glue on spots on top of the ball and sprinkle with candy sprinkles (you could substitute glitter for candy sprinkles to avoid any critters from eating your ornaments while they are in storage during the rest of the year.) Use ribbon or a hook to hang on the Christmas tree.
Using a toothpick, dot on eyes and a nose and a mouth on one marshmallow for the snowman's head. Assemple the three marshmallows to assemble the body. Using frosting glue on the red hots for buttons, stick the pretzels into the middle marshmallow on the sides for arms. If you wanted you could use chocolate chips for eyes and mouth and maybe even a small splinter of a carrot for the nose.
