When I was decorating a few weeks ago, I pulled this little handmade ornament out of the box and immediately thought of Kelli. She loves acorns! So Kelli, here's an idea for a project for you and the kids.
Isn't he cute?
His head is an acorn...I love how the top looks like a tossle cap!...and his body is a walnut. He has Popsicle sticks (cut 2 inches long) for skis and toothpicks for the poles.His arms are just strips of red felt, about a half inch wide. Add another strip of felt for his scarf and your done!
Why don't you join us...Since this is Christmas week, do you have a favorite ornament that you made or one that has a special memory to go with it?
That's adorable!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMine's shared too, won't you drop by when you can?
Happy New Year.
That is too cute.
ReplyDeleteYes, he's so cute indeed! I am sure Kelli will adore it! Thanks for sharing this wonderful idea!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a little girl, we used to make such little people (or even animals) from chestnuts... ;-))
Best wishes,

ReplyDeleteThat is the cutest little fellow I've ever seen! I'm glad I didn't put all of my acorns away, I can't wait to make myself one! Thank you for thinking of me. :0)
