I have an idea for my mantle this year.
The idea just so happens to include snowballs!
Cajun Snowballs!
I started with some smooth foam balls.
Smooth works best....trust me :)
These just happen to have handy dandy holes.
School glue.
Just paint on your glue and sprinkle your sparkle~
Let dry.
The perfect snowball!
Step one of operation mantle complete.
Many more steps to go~
I just may finish them all so I can join the Party here.
Hope to see you there :)

Oh, so darling. . . Cajun snowballs! Makes me think of the Cajun Night Before Christmas. Do honest-to-goodness Louisiana folks enjoy that book as much as the rest of us do? Or is it only good for those of us who don't know any better?
ReplyDeleteThose snowballs are so cute. I want to make some of those. Thanks for sharing. Love & blessings from NC!
ReplyDeleteIt just warms my hear that there are others out there already laying out their Christmas plans on decor etc etc!
ReplyDeleteLove the snowballs ~ I'm into faux snow!

Very clever! I moved south to get a way from the snow but I might be able to live with this hind of snowball!!! Thanks for sharing:D
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful! I have snowflakes that have that same glitter on them. Might have to make some snowballs to match. Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteAw, these are so pretty. I think I'll hang a few with fishing line among my snowflakes in the window this year.
