Easy snowmen:
Take a tube sock. Make a base from cardboard or pressboard and put in the toe of the sock. Put about 3/4 to a cup of rice or beans in to make a heavy enough base. Stuff the rest of the sock with batting, up to the change in ribbing on the sock. Tie a knot at the ribbing change. Fold back over the top of the sock to make a cap. Tie off two sections to make a snowman shape. Attach decorations, like button eyes, pipe cleaner nose, and fabric scraps for scarves.
Place around your Christmas tree and sing like the Who's in Whoville. Ba-who doray, ba-who doray, welcome Christmas, Christmastime!
And I'm paraphrasing. I don't know what those Who's are even singing...

Ok, those are just too too adorable! Question: Does the heel leave a bunch? I mean I would think it would, but I might be missing something...
oops, that was me...keeka
They are tube socks. There's no heel at all, so no bunch :) I think if you got some with the stripes around the top, it would look nice because the cap would look even more like a separate hat.
But they are cute, aren't they?
Welcome Christmas Welcome Christmas
Fah who for-aze! Fah who for-aze!
