Thyme to make some snowmen ornaments and signs!

I don't know of anyone who 

can't resist a snowman

I found this wonderful 

snowman ornies pattern

from

The Old Cupboard Door

HERE
Thanks Willa!

Be sure to stop by and say hi to Willa for me!

I have changed them some so here is my version

Dollar  Store plastic icicles
Remove the top and pour diluted paint  inside
swirl around. I also painted the outsides a little

Spray with adhesive....sprinkle on Diamond Dust!

You can use joint compound to cover the styro foam balls as the directions state
it takes a long time to dry so spread thinly
or
I made my own Snow Tex Paint
I mixed sawdust shavings into white paint
which made a thick texture and painted it on to the balls
when dry add Diamond Dust for sparkle

I bought lots of little black felt hats at the craft store

using a paper punch I made lots of little snow flakes

I decorated the hats with a tiny sprig of greenery, red berries and a snow flake
I glued the heads on to the icecles

I used the end of my brush to dot the eyes and mouth on with black paint
I cut small wooden dowels for the nose and made the ends pointed
I then painted them orange and glued in place.
I added a little rouge to the cheeks

I cut small wool pieces for their scarves

I grunged up little tags
and
wrote chillin , freezin, let it snow
on the tags!

I pinned the tags on with a rusty pin and bell

Aren't these the Cutest?

I've also painted some
SNOW
signs!

AND
I have SNOW balls for sale!

There is no CHILLIN going on here.............

My little Elf and I have been very busy
as
there are only
8 days, 15 hours 5 minutes and 39 seconds and counting
to
MAKE THE MAGIC
HAPPEN!
Will you be ready?
Oh how I hope I am..........
Hugs
