Snowman Pencils (complete w/ photos)

What was supposed to be a VERY quick project took far more time than I anticipated, but I am happy with the results.

The snowmen have styrofoam ball heads covered with white gillter.  Beads for the eyes, felt for the nose and I snipped the ends off cheap dollar store gloves for the hats.  A bit of ribbon tied around the pencil for a scarf.

I was inspired by the latest Martha Stewart Holiday Gift Guide.

I spent my weekend making snowmen inspired by that magazine too!! I have to agree - it took WAY more time than I anticipated. I have to add my scarves tonight.

Yours turned out super cute!! I am LOVING the hats!! Great job!

Snipping the tips off of gloves for hats? BRILLIANT. They are sooo cute....

Let me give credit where credit is due...the snipping off the tips of the gloves for hats was not my idea.  I posted a plea on my blog for help and that was what was suggested by a fellow blogger....but I agree with you, it was a BRILLIANT idea, just not mine
