TP Snowman

This TP snowman is cute and useful! This was a fun and easy gift to put together. I used it as the 5th day of Christmas for a friend. "5 fluffy rings."



Need:
5 rolls of toilet paper
1 large cellophane basket bag (found a two pack at dollar tree)
scrap of fabric for scarf
1 piece of dark tissue paper
markers: black and orange
curly ribbon



Fold the tissue paper in half length wise and wrap around one tp roll.
Stack the tp rolls, draw eyes, carrot nose, mouth and buttons.
Tie scarf around with a square knot.
Place in cellophane bag. I used a twist tie to close the bag and tissue paper at the top and then tied curly ribbon to decorate.
Tape the extra width of cellophane bag loosely in the back. This will keep the snowman from shifting.

Deliver to a friend to brighten their day!

Snowman Cube


After the big Thanksgiving day feast it was craft time for the girls. We made snowmen out of a fence post, cut into 4 inch cubes. The most adorable part: the earmuffs (Felt flowers, pipe cleaner and pom poms). The carrot nose is an elongated wooden heart turned on its side!
