SNOWMAN CRAFT

Isn't this little guy cute! Just a few simple items: faux snow flakes, 2 mini fish bowl vases, felt fabric, adhesive gems, and googly eyes.
Simply fill each vase with the snow flakes and stack one on top of the other. Cut a small triangle from orange felt, for the nose, and a long strip from another color of your choice for the scarf. Cut fringe into the ends of the scarf and wrap it around where the vases connect. Use double stick tape to adhere the nose and to keep the scarf in place. Finally, use adhesive gems to create a mouth and buttons and apply googly eyes with double stick tape.

A great project for the kids! Make several using different color scarves and line them up on a mantle or down the center of a dining table. Happy Holidays!

ALL YOU NEED IS A HOT GLUE GUN, A FEW CUTE SMALL ORNAMENTS AND A LITTLE PIECE OF FELT. CUTE GIFT FOR SOMEONE SPECIAL OR JUST A CRAFT FOR THE KIDDIES TO MAKE.

It's no snow job -- this Frosty requires neither a white Christmas nor freezing temperatures to spread his cheer. All he needs is a stack of leftover boxes, a few pompoms, tape, felt, and some white quilt batting. Bonus: he comes apart, making him easy to store during the off-season.

Materials

• 5 boxes in varying sizes (see the sizes we used, marked in the illustration)
• 8 yards of 48-inch-wide, 4-ounce batting
• Clear packing tape
• Double-sided foam tape
• 5 medium pom-poms (for the mouth)

• 8 large pom-poms (for eyes and buttons)
• Scissors
• 7-inch square of orange felt
• Hat and scarf

Instructions

1. Wrap box 1 with batting and secure it with packing tape. Tape together boxes 2 and 3 and boxes 4 and 5, then wrap them as well. Stack the wrapped boxes. Use double-sided foam tape to affix pom-pom eyes, mouth, and buttons to your snowman.

2. For a nose, trim the felt along the curved line as shown (A), then roll and tape it into a cone (B). Tape the nose to the head, then dress your snowman in a hat and scarf.
