This simple snowman clothespin craft is a fun way to add a touch or two of winter fun without having to decorate the whole house. With winter break coming up, this is a fun craft to do with the kids.
Simple Snowman Clothespin Craft
I love to add little touches around the house during the winter. Especially living down here in Florida now. It wasn’t exactly like I had a lot of snow in Georgia, but the only white-ish powder now is the sand on the beaches. I love having small touches of winter around the house. These small snowman clothespins are the perfect simple snowman craft.
The snowman are cute to use to hang up some of T’s artwork or even to hold back the curtains. I love to see the look on people’s faces once they spot the little snowman peeking out. As a bonus, T and I can make this simple snowman craft together and she can get in on the winter fun.

I love this craft idea. It’s nice they are so simple to do, my grandsons would enjoy making these.
These are adorable!! They look pretty simple to make!
These are too cute. What a great Snow Day craft.
This is a great idea! If you add additional clothespins and string, you can even turn this into a holiday card holder.
