Little Snowmen Village and Other Craft Projects

Every year after Christmas, I always  look for something that I can turn into something different for the next Christmas.  I have these small snowman ornaments and thought of combining them all together in one little village.  The  gift box with snowmen theme was perfect to put all of them together.  So  here it is.   

Aft first I only put 8 characters in there  but I found some more in my little tree so I just added them all together.  

 I have this  card holder and thought that it would be perfect to incorporate it in the snowmen village with this  great message.  I forgot where I got these  but they sure are perfect to my project.  

 I put this refrigerator magnet  on top.  The message "If you have faith, nothing will be impossible to you" resonates with me.

 Most of these snowmen ornament were given to me as gifts  and they are   pretty small for our big Christmas tree.  

 These four snowmen are the original ones.  My sister-in-law gave them to us during my first Christmas here in the States.

 I know that this is suppose to be just  snowmen but I have these small people and the nativity scene SO I incorporated them as well.

 The other  projects that I worked on are these wreaths.  I bought the  plain wreath  on sale, they were 50% off so I thought it would be nice to make some more wreath to hang in our windows next year.

 I also made these small ones.  I used the  pine cones and  old  Christmas balls to decorate it.

Glad my  daughter have a hot glue gun, it helped a lot in my projects.  I haven't   removed my Christmas decors yet but I have additional to   for next year.  I always wait till the new year before I removed all the decorations.  

Planet Venus Model

Our daughter did a study report about the planet Venus.  We bought her  a styro ball and  some  play dough to finish the look of  her planet.  She did the marble design using the  clay dough.  I never  thought of  using the clay dough for it but it worked really good.  

This is  the type of projects that she enjoys doig.  Anything science and things that involve arts and crafts, she's on it.

I will update this  later.
