Happy DIY-Day!! I can’t wait to show you how to make these adorably cute snowmen for this upcoming winter – they’re made from just socks and rice!

You Will Need:

• Socks (One white, one colored)
• A Cup
• 1 lb bag of rice
• 2-3 Buttons
• Ribbon
• Pom Pom
• Black and Orange Marker
• 2, 6-inch strands of twine
• Scissors

To Begin:

1. Begin by placing your white sock in your cup – wrap the opening of the sock around the lip of the cup to hold your sock open for you.
2. Pour enough rice into your sock to make the body of your sock snowman – check your sock to make sure you have not too much nor too little.
3. Using your twine, tie off the snowman’s body as close to the rice as possible. I usually triple-knot to make sure it doesn’t come undone.
4. Next, with the help of a friend, hold open the opening of your sock and allow your friend to pour rice into your snowman to make the head.
5. Like the body, we’ll use a strand of twine to tie off the head. Trim the hanging strands of twine.
6. You should be left with a sock in the shape of a snowman – he’ll have a small tuft of fabric at the top of his head – you can either trim this or leave it as is. It will soon be covered with a hat!
7. Next, we’ll grab our colorful sock and cut it in half – right at the arch of the sock.
8. Using the toe-half of the sock, we’ll place this on top of our snowman’s head. Roll the bottom up to see his face.
9. Using your black marker, mark two dots for his eyes, and a dotted half-crescent for the mouth.
10. With the orange marker, draw a sideways triangle for the nose.
    (You can also use a small orange pompom if you have one – attach with hot glue)
11. Next, we’ll add the scarf – you can either use the fabric from what’s leftover of your colorful scarf or use a pretty ribbon. The choice is yours!
12. For this last step, we’ll heat up our hot glue gun and grab a couple of buttons. Then we’ll glue them to the front of our snowman.
13. And finally, you have a cute and cuddly snowman!
