All you need for this cute snowman project is a salt/pepper shaker, a wooden or foam bead/ball and assorted trims.

 You can choose to fill the shaker with 'snow' or beads but this one was pretty cloudy so I decided to brush Mod Podge on in random spots and roll in ultra-fine glitter.

 For the head, I used a foam ball. Even though it was white already, I brushed it with Mod Podge and rolled in the glitter as well.

 I have a bunch of these key 'things' so that's what I used to make the tag.  I printed the words on paper, glued on and used a sanding block to remove excess paper.

 Since this snow lady likes her 'bling', I added some to the tag.

 More bling from a piece of an old necklace and some decorative yarn/ribbon for a feather-like boa help to complete her look.

 For her hat, a band of sparkly rhinestones and an old post earring dressed it up!  Bead were glued in for the eyes and a spray painted toothpick was used for her nose.

 These are addicting and so fun to make.  They're also a great way to use up those 'odds and ends' of jewelry and trims you might have!
