Super Easy Snowman Pudding Cups
Ingredients
- Vanilla pudding cups
- Black felt
- Orange card stock
- Red and green pipe cleaners
- Buttons, optional
- Black sharpie marker
- Hot glue/hot glue gun
Instructions
- Cut out a small triangle nose from your orange card stock, about 1" in length and carefully glue to the front center of your pudding cup.
- Use a black permanent marker to draw two circle eyes above the carrot nose and about 7 circles in a smiley face shape underneath the nose.
- Cut out a top hat from your black felt, size doesn't need to be exact but the bottom should be about 3" inches wide.
- Glue the black hat to the front rim of the pudding cup, you might need to hold in place until the glue sticks.
- Twist a red and green pipe cleaner together and carefully glue to the bottom of the pudding cup, criss crossing the two sides in front, and trim off the excess so the pipe cleaner scarf isn't too long.
- Glue a couple buttons on the hat for decoration
