Confession – I’ve been thinking of snowmen a lot lately.
Like a lot. {If you haven’t noticed a craft tutorial trend on Glued To My Crafts as of late.}
But not the kind you build outside. {BRRRR I’m not an outside kind of gal!}
I’m talking about the fake cute ones that just sit there and look adorable. -FYI-
I’ve shared a few crafts on the Glued To My Crafts blog already and it’s been snowman overload to say the least. So to go with the theme of my crafty heart right now, I decided to whip up a snowman pudding snack cups for my two favorite men. They, of course, enjoyed it to the last drop and I loved how simple it was for me to pull together.
Not only is this a yummy snack – but it’s also great for a party or any celebration you may throw this winter. With just a few simple supplies and ingredients – you can have these snowman pudding cups whipped up in no time!

SNOWMAN CUP SUPPLIES:
- You will need clear, plastic cups and sharpies. A black and orange sharpie is ideal but you could probably use any color you have on hand. Also, I used oil based paint Sharpies, but I’m sure regular ones would work too. {Or craft paint you may have on hand!}

THE DIRECTIONS:
- Using your sharpie – paint on the face. Dots for the eyes and mouth. And an orange carrot for the nose.
- Set aside to let them all dry completely. {You could even add a scarf around the cup if you choose to!}
- Now on to the pudding to fill your snowman cups!
