My son came to me last weekend and asked if he could raid my craft stash because he had the “perfect idea for a snowman.” Of course I said yes and set him free and he came up with an adorable snowman craft.  My oldest walked in as he was working on his project and she had her own creation pop into mind so today I’m going to share their DIY Snowman and Reindeer! These are super easy projects to tackle and they are super cute.
