Default So Cold this Morning, Time to make Snowmen

should have used marbles or painted the eyes, buttons and mouth.... painting rocks and using bondo glass to stick them on, not sure if that was the right way to go...

Painted rocks look like coal and that's what it's suppose to be.

buzzsaw good idea but i am terrible with picking out clothes... i get in trouble when my daughters outfit doesnt match.. i am getting better at fashion, but i would rather paddle out in a hurricane to go surfing then trying to pick out clothes....

thanks penny i agree.. i just really felt dumb painting rocks... maybe i have issues....

still need to paint his nose. was thinking of having the daughter mix red and yellow paint and see what we get...

also glass bondo for attaching the rocks to wood worked really good.... it would take a hammer to knock them off...
