Snow and DIYing with it

It's snowing here today and it's a nice surprise, quite a phenomenon for our city!

Some of the schools are closed due to the snow, the fireplaces are all fired up while
trying to keep the house warm...

...and everybody feels somewhat happy to see the snowflakes falling outside.

Speaking of snow... have I shown you what I did on New Year's Eve?
Well here, Santa Claus brings the presents on New Year's Eve, so I made some
DIY Santa Footprints for our little ones, with some plastic snow that was left from
our Christmas decorations.Santafootprints_zpsee537aa9
It's a very easy DIY, you just sprinkle some plastic snow or flour around the perimeter
of your biggest shoe or boot and there you have it!

On the table you can see what we treated Santa with and my little furry girl standing in
the middle of the footprints.

You should see their faces and eyes when they both woke up, so overwhelmed!
Sadly, forgot to capture this moment. :(

    1. Yes indeed! I think I can just sit there and stare at it with a hot cup of coffee in my hands! Have a great day my friend!

  4. Καλημέρα Ολγάκι. Πολύ ωραία ιδέα αυτή με τις πατημασιές. Εγώ έχω μείνει μόνο στα μπισκότα και το γάλα!Κι εδώ έχει υπερβολικό κρύο και οτι σταγόνα υπάρχει στο δρόμο είναι παγωμένη. Βέβαια χιόνι δεν είδαμε (όχι οτι θέλω προς το παρόν). Εύχομαι να χαρείτε αυτές τις μέρες.

    1. Δυστυχώς το χιόνι τελείωσε, για λίγο ήταν μόνο. Αλλά το Σ/Κ θα κάνουμε μία απόδραση προς Πάρνηθα μεριά για να φτιάξουμε κανένα χιονάνθρωπο! Καλή σου μέρα γλυκιά μου!

  6. 'Εεεεελα μωρέεεεε...
    Τί γλυκιά ιδέα ήταν τα ίχνη του Αη-Βασίλη!!!
    Έλιωσα τώρα!!!
    Εδώ χθες, βλέπαμε το χιονάκι να πέφτει για 4-5 ώρες, αλλά με τόσο αέρα που είχαμε, πού να το στρώσει???
    Μόνο την... παγωμάρα νιώσαμε!!!
    ;-)
    Φιλάκια!!!

  8. Και στη γειτονιά μου είδαμε μερικές νιφάδες, για ένα 5λεπτο μόνο, αλλά από το τίποτα κάτι είναι κι αυτό. 'Οσο για τα ίχνη του Αη Βασίλη, καταπληκτική ιδέα! Σε χαίρομαι που - παρά τις δυσκολίες - αφήνεις τα πιτσιρίκια σου να παραμείνουν παιδιά και τα βοηθάς να συνεχίσουν να ονειρεύονται. Να ΄σαι καλά, και του χρόνου! Φιλιά

    1. Και τα πιτσιρίκια μου θα παραμείνουν παιδιά αλλά κι εγώ μέσα από αυτά! Δεν θα σταματήσω να "κατασκευάζω" στιγμές μαγείας ή απλής χαράς για την οικογένειά μου ή και τους φίλους μου ποτέ! Αυτό κανείς δεν θα μας το πάρει!

  13. How funny-those footprints! I can only imagine the excitement of your kids when they saw them. My trick is similar, I leave the window open, and some snacks we prepared before we got to bed - eaten. My parents used to do the same for me and my sisters, and I love that memories
