These Mini Embroidery Hoop Snowman Ornaments are such a fun and simple holiday craft to do with kids! This kids Christmas craft yields the most adorable snowman ornaments, great for keeping as a handmade keepsake, or gifting to friends and family!
Hi friends, how have you been? The last two Sundays have been spent making handmade goodies, using all of our accumulated craft scraps from the past year, for an upcoming holiday craft fair. We whipped up two dozen of these little cuties yesterday, and I just LOVE how they turned out. They all have unique touches (pompom earmuffs, felt earmuffs, burlap ribbon bows, etc.) - no two are alike! So much CUTENESS! This is Project #7 in our Kids Sewing Series, here at One Savvy Mom™.
