It's certainly not easy for me to get in the Christmas mood
at the beginning of November.
Especially when I'm dreading cold weather and snow.
But, as a crafter and blogger, I had to suck it up and get my Christmas on!
And what better way to do it than with a fun repurpose!
A friend of mine grabbed me this crate of junk at a sale this summer.
It was chock full of porcelain insulators
and a whole bunch of other pieces/parts.
only because I wanted to clean the crate out.
I honestly had no idea what I was going to do with all of the porcelain pieces.
It suddenly occurred to me that these electric fence insulators would be absolutely
wonderful little snowmen!
I took a sharpie and drew the eyes, mouths and buttons.
Then I used some orange chalk paint for the carrot noses.
I warmed up the hot glue gun and tied some string and fabric
around the middles for scarves.
The tops of the nails almost look like hats, too!
Let's keep in touch...
Your comments make me smile :) 'Til next time!
