This Cotton Ball Snowman is the fifth and last of our Christmas in September extravaganza on the blog. I have a ton more crafts and fun food lined up but I’ll resume the series again in November when we’re closer to the holidays.

Below are the other four featured this week. I hope you check them out and make sure to bookmark or pin to your holiday board so you’ll have easy access when you’re ready to get into the Christmas spirit. )

A cottonball snowman craft is the perfect way to spend a snow day with the kiddos

Of course, don’t forget to save this Snowman Cotton ball craft as well. It’s such a fun and easy activity that will keep the little ones happy and busy all winter long. It’s also a cool way to use all those extra buttons you’ve been meaning to sew back on clothes but never got around to. 😉

A word of caution, though. Hot glue is best to keep all the materials secure and glued together but for safety, please use regular craft glue if little hands are going to be solely making the project.
