DIY Snowman Soup Can

Todays craft is for the snowman lover.  Here is a simple, yet fun DIY project using soup cans. It’s perfectly wintery and would make a fun gift!  Add candy canes or use as a pen holder. This DIY Snowman Soup Can is sure to be a hit!

Snowman Tin Can

Supplies for Snowman Can:

Soup Cans (or any can in the shapes/size of choice)
White Acrylic Paint
Black Acrylic Paint
Orange Acrylic Paint
Paint Brushes (I like to use foam brushes for the cans/jars)

There really isn’t any step by step pictures because it’s pretty self explanatory.  Start by painting the can white.  You could spray paint it, but I chose to paint the can using a brush or foam sponge with the basic white acrylic paint. 

Once that’s done and dry, you can paint your snowman’s face on free hand.  No stencils or patterns are necessary.  Sometimes toothpicks can come in very handy when painting those small ‘coal’ dots for the eyes and the mouth. 

Once you’ve completed these steps — you’re basically done!  Voila.  You have a perfectly sweet and frosty Snowman Can.

Fill with candy canes… or any of your favorite sweet treats.  I’m personally in {love} with the candy cane hairdo {giggle}. Isn’t it the cutest?  And super duper festive?

    So cute and simple but I know, surely, my carrot nose will not come out like that. Not with my paint talents – no way, no how! Great job!

    Great work! I think these would be great gifts for the secretaries at work! Certainly would brighten up their desks in a very fun way. Oh and teachers, dispatchers, clerks… on and on!

    So cute, simple and inexpensive, so a great project to do. I'm not very good at free hand, I think it's because I have one of the worse handwriting in the world. People complain about it forever. But I'll give it a try. Cause who will see but me! Thanks for sharing over at Sunday's Best. Now following you, hope you follow back! Love how you list the linky parties you join in with.

    Okay I should have read your directions. I spray painted the cans – the fumes were horrible. I also run with scissors. I haven’t learned yet? Thank you cute office gifts.
