To celebrate the sadly short amount of time we have that resembles Winter here in Florida I have been doing a "Snow Day" theme here on MHiCTy for the past couple of years.
This year's offerings are gonna be short too because frankly Winter has been over for us for the past 2 weeks. I damn that groundhog to hell... and that's the temps we are gonna be having here in the near future....hell fire degrees. Blah.
Anyway, the first Snow Day bit I have for you all are like 'snow globes in a box' from recycled materials.
The idea is from a children's magazine from 1948:
The upper snowman I made is crafted close to the original idea.
I then decided to try out a few varieties:
A print of two snow people from a vintage greeting card with bits of silver glitter.
A background featuring a snowy paint-by-number print.
And The Cure building a snowman.
My clear plastic boxes originally held mini Halloween bottle brush trees that I picked up from Target on clearance last season. I also sponged on white acrylic paint to the fronts of the boxes to encapsulate the image in Winter.
All of the images i used and then some are in my Pinterest Snow Day Board
