You will need: a white sock, a colored sock for the hat, 1 hat pom pom and 2 orange pom poms, a few buttons, 4 cups of rice (more if you want a big one or less if you want is smaller), elastics or yarn to tie off the rice, glue gun, black permanent marker, pink marker or highlighter.
I made a funnel using a piece of cardstock and placed it inside the white sock. When you have it to the size you like tie it off with an elastic. Pour more rice into the sock to make the head for the snow-lady.
Draw dots for eyes and mouth with the black permanent marker. Glue buttons down her front. Tie a ribbon for her scarf-I used a scrap of bias tape from my sewing basket. Now you’ll need to make a carrot shaped nose. I glued 2 orange pom-poms together with a dab of hot glue and then trimmed it into the shape of the carrot. I thought it turned out pretty well. The hat is made out of the other colored sock. Just trim off a few inches from the toe area and roll it up once or twice. Hot glue a pom pom on the top.
And that is how you do it! Pretty easy project the kids will enjoy making and a good gift for Grandma’s kitchen window.
I wonder if you could put him in the freezer and use him as a cold compress for the kids boo boos…..just a thought.
