Craftstick Snowmen from Decorating Cents

Welcome to Christmas in July! Today Andrea from Decorating Cents is stopping by! Have you stopped by to enter the Christmas goodie giveaway?

Hello Bear Rabbit Bear Craft readers.  I’m Andrea and I’m stopping by from Decorating Cents.  

There I share my DIY projects and home decorating while trying to do it on a budget.  I’m excited to share a fun and easy Christmas project you can do with the kiddos.


Let’s get started. 

You will need
craft sticks
white craft paint
brush 
black marker
felt or fabric 
scissors
glue
string
1. Start by painting the craft sticks white.  
2. Cut small squares of felt to use for the hats.  Cut small strips at the top so the hats will look fringed.  
3. Wrap the felt around the tops of the sticks and secure with glue.  Tie a piece of string around it.  
4. Cut small strips of fabric and tie around the snowmen necks so they become scarves.  
5. Using a marker, draw the faces and buttons down the front.  I used small strips of orange paper to make the noses.
 

Aren’t they cute?  Something you can have the kids do without too much mess.  They would make good ornaments or fridge magnets.

I would love for you to stop on over at my place and say hi for more budget friendly projects.  I love meeting new people.
Thank you Melanie for inviting me over!
