The best part about this windowsill snowman is that he won't melt no matter how warm it gets.
| Prep Time: Under 1 hour | |
| What you need: | |
| Wooden tea box
Drill Pipe cleaners Markers Piece of wide ribbon Glue Buttons Old colored sock Yarn | |
| Seasons: Christmas, Winter | |
| Materials: buttons, fabric, markers, paints, pipe cleaners, ribbon, wood | |
| Instructions: | |
| 1. | To begin, carefully take apart a small rectangular box, such as a teabag box. Turn it inside out and reassemble it, gluing together the sides but not the top. |
| 2. | Stand the box on end and drill two small holes where a carrot nose should go (a parent's job). Bend a short orange pipe cleaner into a V-shape, insert the tips into the holes, and then bend the tips against the inside of the box to secure them. |
| 3. | With colored markers, draw eyes and a mouth. |
| 4. | For arms, make matching holes through the box top and bottom and thread through a long brown pipe cleaner (it's easier if you open the box for this step). |
| 5. | Close the box, tie a ribbon scarf around it and glue on buttons. Top it all off with a ski hat made by cutting off the tube portion of colored sock, tightly tying one end with a piece of yarn and stretching the open end onto the snowman's head. |
