Upside Down Snowman

So....long time no post!  This seems to be my problem with keeping blogs.  I start off nice and strong and then stop keeping up with them.  While I may have stopped updating the blog, I have not stopped Pinteresting!  I have a lot of reviews of a lot of projects to catch up on.

Let's start with this upside down snowman I pinned earlier this past fall.  Little did I know when I pinned this, that we'd have very little snow to work with this winter.  In February, we finally had a snowfall with enough snow to make a snowman.  Barely.

He's not very big, and he has a bunch of grass in him, but we worked with what we had.  The 3 year old was quite confused with what I was doing, putting his face on the bottom, but he eventually caught on and thought it was fun.

We used some sorry dead ornamental grass pieces for his arms as the closest place to find sticks was through a field filled with weeds that are almost as tall as I am and, frankly, I didn't really care about his arms, or him having legs, enough to make the trek across the field.  But he still turned out kind of cute!  I want to try it again next winter with (hopefully) some more snow.
