A plump and cheerful DIY snowman can be a great gift that will delight your friends and family for more than one year. Every time you take it out of the box with New Year's decorations, your loved ones will rejoice at the upcoming holiday and remember you. How to make a snowman from children's tights.
Today, giving gifts made with your own hands has become fashionable again. Such a gift will always be original. And if you make it from the available materials at home, then, among other things, you can also save your budget.
A snowman made of children's tights with your own hands is very easy. Cut the leg of the pantyhose on both sides: remove the sock with the heel and the top. We place the resulting "sleeve" with the narrow side up and tighten the cut edge with threads. It turns out a kind of bag, which will become the body of our snowman. We put a small amount of filler (cotton wool, etc.) into this bag and pull the pant leg with threads, forming the head of a snowman.
Next, we again take the filler, but already more, and again place it in the "sleeve" below our constriction. This will be the "body" of the snowman. Then, in the same way, using even more stuffing, we form the bottom of the toy and, having cut off the excess part of the tights, we tighten it with threads.
When our workpiece, consisting in this way of three "snowballs", is ready, you can proceed to the decor. We put a bucket made of felt or other dense material on the snowman's head. The face can be embroidered with colored threads or beads. It is convenient to make a carrot nose from red or orange laces.
A snowman made from scrap materials can be decorated with a variety of elements. Bows, buttons, embroidery, applique and more will do. It all depends on your imagination and taste.
Such a small snowman can be used as a Christmas tree toy, and a larger copy can be put under the Christmas tree together with Santa Claus and Snow Maiden.
