DIY: When you don't have snow...

...You get CREATIVE. After visiting our local Christmas tree farm, we asked the guys there if we could have some of the left over rounds they cut off the trees. (They had quite a pile going) We brought them home and "cleaned" them up the best we could, and this is what we came up with...


It's pretty self explanatory. First glue the rounds together with hot glue. (after they dry, from the cleaning)

Then add some decorations. We chose NOT to do eyes, they looked kind of creepy... hahahaa.

Then VOILA! There you have it... THE MISTER & THE MISSES.

  3. I love these little guys!
    The great thing about snowmen is you can leave them out all winter long.

  5. I don't care if it has been 4 years since someone posted a comment here, THESE ARE THE BOMB!!! I have been contemplating something similar and when I saw these I just fell in love!!!!!!!!! Great job!! I agree that the eyes could get in the way of the cuteness you created so I would leave them off as well. Did you just use scrap fabric for the scarves?

  6. Thanks for the comment Shirley!! I've been "out of the loop" for awhile... more on that later.
    Yes, I used scrap fabric for the scarves. My kids still ask to make these every year!
