My 5 year old son and I had a blast making these for him to gift at Christmas! I used twizlers for the scarf, tied to the side- too cute!

I made these for Christmas gifts for the office and packaged them in a christmas cup with polyester fiberfil to act as snow. They were a hit. I didn't use the fruit roll ups. Instead I added three more mini chocolate chips slighty below the nose to serve as buttons.

I thought that these were great and really cute! I did not use the fruit-by-the-foot or the green candies. I thought that it was cute enough with just the eyes and the nose and I thought the other stuff would take away from it. I made them for our Christmas celebrations though and they were a hit and I got a lot of compliments on them! I will definately make these again!
