I'm so excited to share these with you guys!! I haven't seen anything like this out here on blogland. They came out just how I pictured them in my mind. These were tons of fun to make and easy.
I started with two baby food containers that were 2nd food size and one that was the 1st food size.
I painted the big ones white and the small one black. I gave them each two coats allowing it to dry completely in between.
Then I painted a face and some buttons.
The containers were then filled with goodies. I then hot glued the containers together.
The best part was I only had to go buy mini marshmallows, and mini candy canes. I had everything else so out of pocket expense was about $3 and that will be able to make tons of them to giveaway.
I love frugal crafts like this. Such a great idea. I hope you will join me at Bacon Time for our weekly linky party, Fri-monday come strut your stuff. My youngest doesn't eat much baby food anymore, but I think I have a some dollar store mini containers I could try this on.
