WINTER ICE BAUBLES.... easy DIY

This is about as easy & pretty as it gets on a winter day!

Fill balloons with water, food coloring, little jewels.  You can even fill one with food for the birdies.  Let frozey nature do its thing; when balloons are frozen - pop the balloon and enjoy the pretty baubles of winter :)

When I started my bauble making, it was snowing, then over night it rained turned warmish, then the next day super frozey, snow was gone & balloons were frozen to the table :)

I brought my baubles inside, they are so pretty slowly melting in the warmth of our home, they look like gigantic marbles.


(To avoid spraying water everywhere like I did; add a tiny bit of water/jewels in the balloon first, then add food coloring, then continue to fill balloon to the size you want)

Have a fantastic, cozy day!!

SNOWFLAKE HANDS!...super easy craft!

I know its kinda crazy to think of people not knowing what snow is all about; especially when your living in the frozey cold... so this crafty is for our warm climate friends :)  

This will make a perfect little gifty to let them know were thinking of them as their hanging on the beach while we swoosh in the snow.

I just got some gloves (2 sets for $1.50) and sprayed the fingers with spray glue then sprinkled pretend snow on them.  I used 2 kinds (only because I still had some from last year) one was a little more iridescent.  For my nephew, Caleb I didn't use as much of that kind and used black gloves.  Then I flipped them over and did the same thing to the other side.  Super easy & done, now I just have to finish my hot chocolate and get these in the mail.  

For that added frozey feel you can slip into the gloves a "booboo" pack.  (not sure of proper name but the little cold things you keep in the freezer for owies)

Hey for all our warm weather friends, can you send some of your warm sunbeams :) That would totally make our day!

I hope your having a blast where ever you are!!
