It’s finally starting to get a little chilly outside, so we at AllFreeChristmasCrafts have the cold on our minds! We absolutely love snow crafts, and part of why we love them so much is because they aren’t just for Christmas! Many snow crafts are great to leave up throughout the winter. After all, it’s always a little sad to take down Christmas decorations after the holiday passes, so why not craft something that can stay up through March?

Snowflake Crafts

Snowflake crafts can range from the truly difficult to the truly basic. This Crochet Snowflake Garland is a little more difficult than simply cutting patterns out of paper, but we have tutorials for even the most basic snowflake crafts. It’s true that no two snowflakes are the same, and these craft ideas are truly unique!

Snowman Craft Ideas

Salt Dough SnowmenSnowmen are fun to build when the snow is perfect for packing, but what about when snow isn’t on the ground yet? And if the snow is too powdery, that’s no good for building snowmen, either. Keep snowmen around all winter when you make snowmen inside your home! These snowman craft ideas are great crafts for kids and for parents! Take these Salt Dough Snowmen for example. Mom can make the salt dough, and the kids can have fun sculpting the snowmen and adding faces, hats, and scarves!

Christmas Countdown: Let it Snow!

by Leave a Comment

Now don’t laugh, but when I was younger I wanted to live inside of a snow globe.  I thought it would be wonderful to be in a world where snow was always falling and where everyone was happy and loved playing in a field full of snow.  Of course, this never came to fruition, but I do still love snow globes, and in particular, snow globe crafts.

Surprisingly, snow globe crafts aren’t that difficult to make.  In this video, you can learn how to make a snowglobe craft by using an old jar and your favorite ornament.  Adding blue food coloring to the water adds more magic to the globe.  Why is it that everything is more fun with colors?

If you don’t have a jar handy, there are plenty of snowy craft ideas available in this week’s Monday issue of the Christmas newsletter, 152 Days Till Christmas: 20 Snowy Ornaments, Jewelry and More!

I don’t want to give too much away, but this card is just too cute to not share!
