Over Christmas vacation, I tackled this snowman craft featured on U Create. I ventured off slightly from the directions and only used two twine balls instead of three. I found the twine balls at Hobby Lobby for pretty cheap, spray painted them white (with the leftover cheap spray paint I unsuccessfully used on the picture frames), used some sticks we had in our firepit stash, made the hat (from the leftover black fabric I used for the Santa cones), and used some yarn and extra buttons I had around the house. So overall, my only outside costs for this project were the two balls. I might still mount it on a cheap plate so it doesn't roll. And I still think it's missing something. CJ says I need to make a little carrot nose and put some small buttons on it for a mouth. Anyone agree or have other suggestions?

How very crafty of you...this is totally cute! I agree with CJ, though. I think a carrot nose would really set it off. :)
