Last year, one of my favorite Christmas crafts that I made were these die cast cars with snow and mini Christmas trees. They were huge hits at my local craft bazaar last year, so I kept my eyes peeled this year as I did garage sale and thrift store shopping for more things that I could add faux snow and trees to.
I found a few things, and this time, they were even bigger than the little die-cast cars I used last year!
Just a refresher, the faux snow is made from Plaid Collage Clay. It doesn't take much. In fact, I'm still using a tube from last year. Just make sure you seal it up well because it will dry out.
I found a miniature Radio Flyer sled that was about eight inches long. It's pretty sweet. I added collage clay to the parts that snow would likely stick and laid a faux tree inside. Easy peasy.
I love this green wooden truck. It looks vintage, but it's not. I have seen them at stores like Home Goods, but I bought it at {where else?} a garage sale. Again, I added the snow around the edges of the truck. This time, I tied the tree down to the back with some bakers twine.
