Polymer Clay Snowmen - Kid's Art Class

My example

OK this may be my favorite project of 2012.  Of course that may have something to do with my fondness for all things snowman.  I started my collection in the late 1990's and it has grown quite large over the years.  

So I may have been a little biased when I chose this for this week's project in my kid's art class.  The kids did a fantastic job.  It was a great way for them to show their individuality.  I showed them how to do the basic construction and then let them pick colors for their buttons and scarves.  They also did different hat styles.  There were some definite themes that emerged and the kids were so proud of themselves. 

 The ARTISTS...

 The TRADITIONALISTS...

 The NON-CONFORMISTS...

Next week is our Christmas cookie decorating party.  Can't wait!

Snowman Ornaments - Art Class

We made snowmen ornaments from mini canvases this week. 

It was a fun little project.  The girls did a great job on them!
