Do You Want to Build a Snowman… or Two?!

It has been an incred­i­bly harsh Win­ter for many around the coun­try, though you would­n’t know liv­ing here in Vegas, where it has actu­al­ly been unsea­son­ably warm! We have been under the impres­sion that the Ground­hog was incor­rect in his recent pre­dic­tion! Just this past week­end, my fam­i­ly and I stayed at a local hotel where we spent the after­noon enjoy­ing the 70° sun at the pool!

Well, the fol­low­ing day, the tem­per­a­ture dropped about 30° and we were imme­di­ate­ly trans­port­ed back to the real­i­ty of Win­ter. Well… a West Coast Win­ter, that is! So much so, that it actu­al­ly snowed in parts of Las Vegas today! Though snow­fall ’round these parts does­n’t pro­duce enough to stick to the ground long enough to build snow­men, it imme­di­ate­ly made me think of the ones I can actu­al­ly build ~ out of fon­dant, of course!

I made this set of fan­cy shman­cy snow­men for the Glit­ter Gold dessert table that Jen­ny Cook­ies so beau­ti­ful­ly styled for the San­ta’s Secret Work­shop event in 2013. I loved dress­ing them up in a vari­ety of cold weath­er acces­sories and decid­ed to cre­ate a tuto­r­i­al to make a sim­i­lar snow­man cou­ple. Have fun chang­ing up the hats and scarves with the step-by-step instruc­tions fea­tured on Cake Cen­tral to cre­ate your own!

And, of course, this Dis­ney lover could­n’t help putting some Min­nie Mouse ears on the lit­tle snow­man! Actu­al­ly, our Elf on the Shelf, Chip­munk, uti­lized her to sur­prise my daugh­ter with a trip to Dis­ney­land over the hol­i­days, as seen on my Insta­gram feed!

Wher­ev­er you are and what­ev­er the weath­er, you can always build a sweet lit­tle snow­man… or two!
