Time:30 min Difficulty:Medium  

Still struggling with what to do with odd socks? It’s a waste to toss a whole pair when just one has worn out, or a single when the other has gone missing. Turn it into an adorable snowman!

Here’s what you need:

  • An old sock
  • Scissors
  • 2 paper balls (one larger than the other)
  • Yarn or String
  • Markers
  • Buttons or Push Pins

Here’s how you make it:

Step 1: Cut an old sock just below the heel.

Step 2: Put the big paper ball in the sock and push it to the bottom. 

Step 3: Tie a piece of yarn around the sock above the paper ball to form the body of your snowman.

Step 4: Put the small paper ball in the sock and tie a piece of yarn around the sock’s opening. This will be the snowman’s head!

Step 5:  Make a scarf by cutting a thin strip off of your leftover sock piece. Cut the strip open and colour it. Tie the scarf around your snowman’s neck!

Step 6: Stick buttons onto the body, then draw on the eyes, nose, and mouth!

Put your sock snowman on display and then you’re all done!
