Ha. Every year I try to start my Christmas ornament project earlier and earlier, because usually by the end of December I'm not finished and I'm more and more frustrated. So this year it was the 4th of July that I decided what I was going to do, and today I made a couple of prototypes since I didn't like any of the patterns I found.

So here is a slightly washed out shot of my snowman. The eyes and mouth are seed beads, and the buttons are some heart-shaped beads that I found at the craft store this evening. I have some star-shaped ones as well.
