– Unknown
Ingredients:
1 pajama-clad crafty kiddo
(and her curious baby sister)
3 mini terracotta pots
3 wooden ball knobs
1 permanent marker
copious amounts of
white paint and glue
random bits and pieces of design, including:
puff balls, pipe cleaners, felt, and bitty buttons
a little bit of whimsy
But wait! These three are two-faced!

Well now aren’t those snowmen just cute! The kids are cute too, but those snowmen! *wink* Do they play with them or are they “decoration” only?

Ro, no. But T got to play with them for the rest of the day before they became for decorative use only. . . they ARE mostly made from a mini terracotta flower pot, and I doubt they’d have stood up to much more abuse!
