SNOWMAN CONVENTION! |
Over Thanksgiving, I went to one of my sisters' home with other family members. I brought a fun, little craft project for people to do. Knowing a lot of my family members aren't as crafty as I am, I chose a no-sew, wintery project with lots of room for individual flare but easy enough for young and old alike.
A tall order, I assure you. But everyone who chose to make one, from ages 5 to 80, had a great time. There were a couple of complaints that there were too many choices. LOL!
Here are the pictures of the sock snowmen that were made. They turned out super cute!
My sister whose house we were at made these two. |

These are all simply adorable! I love them all!
I took ideas from several different YouTube videos. If you want to make some of these, type "sock snowmen" into the search window in YouTube and many variations will come up. Choose the one--or ones--that appeal to you most.
You all may have noticed I was absent from posting for a couple of weeks. That was due to moving, which I'm still in the process of. I'm still schlepping stuff from there to here. I wish I was done, but I'm not. I need to make room here before I can bring more stuff from there. Soon, I'll be done soon.
