Money Snow Ball

I always give my 6 grand kids money plus something I have made. I had no idea what to do this year until I saw the snow balls. I made my ball be tracing a base ball, adding the faces, 2 girls and 4 boys, their names on the back and a pocket on the side to put the money in. We are snowed in today so I got them all done. Thanks for the idea.

Would you be willing to sell your design? I love these! These are a great idea.

Thanks to all for the nice things you have said. The grandkids are ages 19 to 12 and they loved the snow balls. The balls were traced from a base base the kids had left here and the faces are from a snowman pattern I had and made larger. Removed the plain eyebrows for the "boy" ones and replaced with the eye lashes for the "girls" from a face pattern I had. So I do not think I can sell the design.

For about 35 years my former boss gave his wife a money gift along with her other presents. The challenge for him was to give it in a very creative way. One year, we attached the bills to the back of a big tacky dollar bill scatter rug. Another year, we rolled up all the bills and put them in the back of Santa's little sleigh. The first year, it was actually a miniature money tree.he would rack his brains all fall for the best idea. This was a man who loved Christmas!

How I wish Santa would bring me snowball faces for Christmas. As I live in Southern part of New Mexico, we don't get much snow that will stay to even build a good snowman. These are so cute.
