This project is simple, kid-friendly and quick: Kids decorate an electric tea light with felt or ribbon for a hat and scarf, draw on a face, and voilà — a glowing snowman ornament perfect for a tree or as a homemade gift. Because the tealight’s flame becomes the snowman’s “nose,” the decoration stays festive even when lit. Head to Red Ted Art for all the details.
