Snowman Picture Decoration ~Bostik Challenge

This weekend I had Little M visit me for the whole day so her parents could go Christmas shopping. Litte M for those who need an intro is my crafting buddy. She is 6 years old and is my niece. On Sunday morning she arrived full of energy and bursting to go. The weather was kind and we did have a glimmer of sunshine so we decided that we would spend some time in the garden. I desperately needed to pick up all the leaves so Little M helped me. We spent almost an a hour clearing the garden after which it was time to go indoors to have a snack. Usually we make a smoothie but we were really cold so we broke the ritual and instead made hot chocolate and gingerbread latte the recipe you can find here.


For the hot chocolate I warmed milk in the microwave added some cadburys hot chocolate into it and warmed it for two minutes. Little M was dissapointed we did not use the Froothie Blender to make the chocolate like she does when we make smoothies. To cheer her up I let her froth the milk up with a frother and she got all excited. 


After refreshments Little M and I set about  with the Bostik craft box. There were many snow themed craft items in the box. Little M wanted to make presents for her mum and dad and little brother so we made a lovely snow man  Picture decoration for Litte S her brother and some lovely snow themed sweet jars for her parents which I will share in my next post. Little M really enjoyed making this snowman and she loved his goggly eyes!!!! She decided to call him Larry!! I have no idea why or where she got this name from.



To make the snowman picture decoration, you will need:

  • A5 sparkley blue card
  • Funky foam snowman cut out shape
  • Ribbon
  • white imitation snow fabric
  • 2 stick on eyes
  • Red felt for scarf and nose
  • Black card for hat
  • Buttons
  • Sparkly stick on gems
  • Bostik Glue
  • Bostik Glue Dots
  • Pencil
  • Scissors

To see how we made our Snowman Picture Decoration please watch the video below.


Being part of the Bostik 2016 bloggers with Tots100 and Merrily Crafts, I was sent some craft items in a box to create this project.

    The hot chocolate with looks and sounds scrumptious and just the thing after being out in the chill and cleaning up leaves. Little M's snowman craft is quite adorable.
