SNOWMAN BUILDING KITS DIY

Here is another super idea for snow days...

a snowman kit

I replace the felt carrot nose to a plastic one pushed onto and glued onto a wooden skewer.

I love the colourful rosettes...

The just add snow tags finish it off nicely.

I used black forestry pebbles and large clown buttons glued onto golf tees not google eyes



these are from The Fickle Pickle

We made ours last winter but then had no more snow, 

 we can't wait to use them and will post photo's of the best dressed snowman in the street.
