You Create: Snow Men





Since this kind of snow man is hard to come by in these parts (this one was made on our trip to Ohio), we've been saving baby food jars around here for awhile. I did make some baby food, but those little jars are nice to have sometimes!

The girls painted some jars white (Kate did stage three and Gabby did stage two). I painted the lids various colors and also painted a meat jar black--in the second set we did I painted the lid of the meat jar red, so he had a nice red ribbon on his hat.



The faces are simply Sharpies and paint pens and hot glued googly eyes. Then a quick gluing of the jars together.

A gift from our whole family--Justin's paycheck bought the food, Nate emptied the jars, and the girls and I painted!
