He now has a new life with two other pepper mills. They've been recreated into a charming snowman family.
I've always liked spindle snowmen like this one on the Plaid website. However, spindles seem expensive to me. These pepper mills were not expensive (perhaps not a dime a dozen at the thrift store but very, very cheap and very easy to find).
For those who may be curious, I used a wide ribbon spool to make Mr. Snowman's hat.
I will be sharing these at:
A Tiny Announcement: I am going to try to create a hundred unique styles of snowmen by the end of the year.
A great idea to switch out the spindles for broken pepper mills instead! They make a lovely family, Melissa!
ReplyDeleteI love snowmen. What a great way to use your thrifty find!
ReplyDeleteThose are so cute! I love looking at things and their shapes to see what I can turn them into. I saved a Picante Salsa jar because it looks like a female figure. One day I'll finish the project that's in my head!
ReplyDeleteThey are so adorable! What a great use of broken pepper mills!
