The Melting Snowman

Last week I shared how a friend gave me a bag of rocks because she wanted to see what I could do with them. 

Here is the project that I already shared...

You can see that post HERE.

I took on the rock challenge again!

One of the rocks was rather small and was round but somewhat flat. So, it was perfect for a head.

I used Sculpey oven bake clay, conditioned it, and pressed it out into a "not perfect" circle. Then I inserted the rock into the clay.

I baked it according to the package directions. When it cooled, I painted the clay and the rock with white acrylic paint. I painted the face, also with acrylic paint, added three buttons to his melted belly, and tied a piece of yarn around his neck for a scarf.

Easy and super cute!
This would be a fun project for kids. Let them find their own rocks and create a whole family of melting snowmen.

Stay tuned for the next rock challenge!
