Paper Mache Snowman

Frosty The Snowman
 
 
If you dont mind mess this is the make for you! My kids had a great time making snowmen, or in the case of May had a great time making a great mess.
I make Paper mache mix out of white PVA glue and Water { 1/2 glue to 1/2 water } To make the snowballs we put handfulls of shredded paper into a tub with the paper mache mix. Got the paper nice and wet ,then squeeved it together to form balls. We left our snowballs to dry out for a couple of days and then painted them white. Lollipop sticks for arms and we have a snowman.
For more ideas have a look at our Christmas Page!

Plastic Bottle Snowman

                                                   Winter Snowman
Christmas madness has already started in our house and its not even December yet. May's School even has its Christmas Fayre next weekend and I spent my last parent helper morning being Santa's little helper. 30 cuddly dogs needing collars with bells,next week I think there's another 30 to do.
 
This little snowman was made from a plastic bottle, covered in strips of paper. For more instructions on how to make him check out our new Christmas page! Where I have gathered together a few idea's for easy Christmas Arts and Crafts.

Homemade Christmas Presents

Wooden Spoon Puppets
 
 
This little Snowman is made from a kit from Yellow moon arts and craft catalogue. { the links on our cheap art supplies } May's been making some of these puppets for christmas presents for her little cousins. They are cheap to buy and easy to make.
 But we also cheated and went to the Pound store and bought wooden spoons and coloured foam, which worked out even cheaper!
