Christmas is such a wonderful time of the year. I especially love it when it snows and we can go out in the snow and build a snowman. It’s so fun and something I am hoping will happen this year.
Today I am sharing my Snowman Milk Bottle Craft which I recently made using posca pens from Hobby Craft.

How to Make a Snowman Milk Bottle
All you need for this project is a few bottles, depending on how many milk bottles you want to paint and a mix of thin and thick tipped Posca Pens.
First you draw the outline of the snowman. I’d recommend using a white Posca pen for the outline. This makes it easy to see.
Add detail, a scarf, buttons, and any other detailing to your snowman image.
Next use a black paint pen to create a hat. You can paint a black cap or choose another colour to decorate the hat. I added some red and a yellow buckle to add character to my hat.
Next fill in the parts of the scarf. I went for a red and blue scarf. Again you can choose whatever colours you prefer.
Add the detail using a thin Posca pen, colour in the buttons, add a mouth and eyes and an orange nose. Finally colour in the white with a thick white paint pen.
The Snowman milk bottle craft turned out really well and I am excited to be sharing it here on the blog.
I made a few different bottles which was super fun.
