I know there is a plethora of cute, awesome, amazing snowman ideas. I saw one cute idea regarding snowmen made of socks but it required cotton batting and beans and other crafty items I don’t own. Then I thought about rice warmers. Could I combine the two?
I tested my theory out of some fancy long socks my daughter thinks are scratchy. I poured rice into a sock, knotted it, poured rice, knotted it, and folded down the top edge for the hat. I microwaved it for a minute and voila! Warmth.
Until my youngest walked in. “OH! So Cute!”
She confiscated it. I explained I was about to draw on a face and add some fabric embellishments. “No! Not my Snow Beanie!”
Oh dear. She had already named it. I explained how I was about to microwave it to show her the warmth – “No! Don’t microwave him!”
Before I knew it, Snow Beanie had sequins glued on for buttons. “Uh, sequins are NOT microwaveable,” I stated.
Anabelle smiled. I believe that was her plan. Snow Beanie is safe and now sleeping next to her pillow.
How funny! Very clever thinking on her part to rescue her snow beanie =)
Smart girl…keeping Snow Beanie safe! I found you via It’s Playtime. I have a new meme called Thematic Thursday and this week’s theme is Winter/Snow. I’d love to see this post linked up. Find Thematic Thursday here.
