how to make diy snowman gift wrapping with paper bag
Lay the brown paper lunch bag flat.
Dip your finger into white craft paint and make two- or three-ball snowmen throughout.
Let one side dry before repeating on the other side of the paper bag, if desired. This is a GREAT kids craft for Christmastime!
Once completely dry, use a black marker to make little snowmen faces and coal buttons.
Use red and green craft paints to make little scarves or bowties on some of the snowmen.
Tie the brown paper craft bag with a grosgrain ribbon or simply roll down the bag’s opening.
