We have been busy making these gorgeous little snowmen decorations. They were really simple to make and Harry had a great time decorating them.
We mixed up some salt dough using this recipe.
I set up the table with salt dough, a snowman biscuit cutter and a selection of things to decorate the snowmen with.
Harry used the cutter to make some snowmen.....
.......had fun decorating them, and left them to dry (for a couple of days). I made a hole in the top of each of his decorations by pushing a straw though the dough.
As the salt dough dried a few of the pom poms and the ribbon fell off but we just glued them back on. Once the decorations were dry I tied on some ribbon and they were ready for hanging on the tree.
Harry also had fun making a snow owl and a melted snowman! I love it when he comes up with his own cute ideas like this!
