Christmas and tealights go together like hot chocolate and marshmallows. Maybe you’ve even seen those miniature villages of tealight houses, all decked out in winter loveliness, and delighting all with their homey charm. Houses aren’t the only tealight candle decorations to enjoy this season, though! You can turn an ordinary electric tealight into an adorable snowman ornament with just a few supplies and a little bit of hot glue. You’ll wind up with a delightful tree decoration, or sweet little gift (or gift-topper) for a teacher, hostess or coworker.
Snowmen reimagined
This festive little snowman tealight craft project is cute and clever — an adorable addition to any Christmas decor. Make a few, and mix things up a bit by giving them differently-colored scarves and earmuffs. You could even draw on a bigger smile, different expressions (no frowns allowed!) or some eyelashes.
