Sock Snowman
Make a snowman out of a sock - Submitted by H. Marie. An easy projects with fantastic results!

Materials Needed:
  • White Sock
  • Yarn
  • Pom-Poms
  • Beads and/or Buttons
  • Felt
  • Rice
  • Wiggle Eyes
  • Glue
Instructions:
Fill the sock about 2/3 full with rice. Use the yarn and tie the sock closed about 1 inch above the rice. Divide the rice filled section of the sock almost in half. You will want the section closest to the top to be a bit smaller. This will be the snowman's head. Tie a piece of yarn tightly around the sock where you divided into 2 sections.

Roll or fold down the top, empty half of the sock so it looks like a hat. Glue a large pom-pom on the top of the hat. Use a piece of felt and cut out a scarf shape. Tie it around the neck of the snowman where you tied it with the yarn. Secure with a little bit of glue. Use wiggle eyes, beads, smaller pom-poms, buttons, and/or scrap felt to make your snowman's features. You can give him eyes, a carrot nose (chenille stems or felt works well), mouth, buttons, etc.
