Light Bulb Snowman


Light Bulb Snowman
My neighbor suggested this project. This is a easy project and so very cute.  It does take some time to make.  You have to be patient to let it dry in steps.  But it is well worth the wait.

You will need :
 Black paint
White paint
Mog Podge
wire
ribbon
black felt 3x3 square
buttons for nose and hat
 Paint your light bulb.  I set it in a bottle as not to have to hold it.
 Paint the bottle black after bulb drys.
Cut square into circle.  Fold in half cut a slit in center 1/3 in.  Fold circle the other way and cut a slit 1/3 in. Paint white on hat.
 form wire around bulb.  Then take it off.
 Put on hat then wire on.
 Put hot glue around hat and put on ribbon.  this catches three things at once.  The hat, wire and ribbon to stem of bulb.
 Glue on buttons on the hat.

Draw face. Mod Podge bulb and stem. Your done.  However, Please, What Ever You Do. . .
. . . Don' t drop the bulb.
