LOL! He had a great time and didn't want to come in! We need to get him some snowpants and some snowboots soon!Look at our ornaments we made yesterday! So much fun, and not hard! Though, I may go buy orange acrylic paint and redo the noses....(I had used an orange sharpie)
Supplies Needed: Plain Glass Ornament, white, orange, and black acrylic paints, decorative ribbon.
Directions: Dip child's hand in white paint and carefully place handprint on ornament. Wait till dry. Paint on hat, mouth, buttons, and arms with black paint, and paint carrot nose in orange paint.Wait till dry. Tie ribbon at top of ornament.
Optional: I painted the name and year on the back of the ornament.
This was on a little business size card and tied with a ribbon to the top of the bulb... I left it on and hang it with the poem and all..
These aren't just 5 snowmen as anyone can see
I made them with my hand,Which is a part of me.
Now each year when you trim the tree
You'll look back and recallChristmas of 200_
When my hand was just this small.
Merry Christmas
