Ok, I got these round sponges over the weekend with the strong desire to paint me some snowmen.
I dry-sponged (got the sponged wet with paint and then dabbed it off on paper) the entire saw giving it a snowy look.
Then I painted my snow mens’ bodies. These sponges make it really easy…although my first one turned out a little chubby…oh well, he’ll fit right in around here!
After the paint dried, I took a paint pen and wrote my phrase…”Let it Snow”. You obviously could use whatever phrase you like…that’s just the one that popped into my head.
Next, I gave the snowmen arms, buttons, and faces with permanent marker and then top coated it with a clear coat.
This didn’t take anytime at all and will make a nice gift, I think.
I painted another one to have something on hand just in case I forgot someone on my list or maybe I’ll keep it for myself. It looks nice next to my toolbox!
So cute! I’m off to look for something to paint snowmen on! : ) Merry Christmas!
Oh, I love it. Perfectly rustic and festive. Happy Holidays to you and yours.

Very cute! Not sure how you find time to do all these things.
I love this project, makes me wanna go rummage through hubby’s garage for things he isn’t ‘using’ and pretty them up. Because he can still use them and well, I can practice this!
