Cool Sock Snowman

This is a perfect way to use those socks you can't find the matches too. Get creative! Who says snowmen have to be white?


 You will need:


A white ankle sock **or any other color you desire

Baby sock

Toy stuffing

Fabric glue

Ribbon

Thread

Brown felt

Scrap of orange craft foam

Sequins/buttons

Scrap card


Instructions:


Cut a small circle of scrap card and pop it in the toe of the ankle sock.

Stuff the sock to the heel.

The sock should now stand up on the card base.


Tie a length of ribbon around the sock where you want the scarf to be. It will help separate the sock into head and body.

Slip the baby sock onto the head to form the hat. Tie a piece of wool around the end and cut off the "toe" end of the baby sock.


Glue on twig arms (cut from brown felt), a carrot nose (from orange craft foam), eyes and a row of buttons down his front (from sequins or buttons).
