How cute is this craft that my daughter brought home from school today. It is so simple and easy to make. You can easily line a walk way with these cute Snow Man Milk Jug Luminary- Easy Winter Craft.
Start with a half-gallon plastic milk carton.
Cut out circles in black construction paper, felt or foam. Glue on for eyes.
Add a cute orange triangle for a nose. Glue it into place.
Cut out 4 more smaller black circles for the mouth. Glue on.
Cute a small hole on each side, near the top. Insert a chenille stick as a handle. I love how this gold one really jumps out. Glue on a red pompom around the holes.
Now in the back, cut out a square so that you can add in a candle. I used the battery operated tea light-like candles.
See how cute they are all lite up. Let your snowman show the way.

This is adorable! What a cute winter project. I need to pin this on Pinterest!

Very cute craft! If you use a fake tealight it can be used as a winter night light! My kids will love it!
Debi
That is what I use. I never use real candles because of the kids and the cats. I get my led light tea light candles at the dollar store.

Great craft, and very easy to do! At first i thought it was Burt from Burt and Ernie.

This is such a cute twist! I’ve seen the milk jugs done up as ghosts for Halloween and thought those were cute, but snowmen is even better! Thanks for sharing!

these are TOO cute! Looks like a simple project, and easy enough to do with kids, but not the same old thing.

That’s a great idea! I would make one and use it when we get typhoons and the power goes out. That would surely keep the kids from playing with the candles. It would also save me the effort to scraping the candle wax after the power comes back on. Thank you for sharing! Love it!
