It looks like an invasion of snowmen...LOL...This little snowman is another oldie but goodie...I gave the graphic away as a freebie last year and have had several requests for it this year sooooo here he is..."Snowman Candy Wrapper"
This graphic may be sized to fit almost anything, from rolls of Lifesavers or Rolos to coffee cans and microwave popcorn. It works especially well when wrapped around your favorite size of Hershey bar.
The hats can be made out of felt, fleece, Christmas socks or the cutest thing I've seen is knit gloves...The scarfs can be made from scraps of fabric, felt, fleece or ribbon as well. It's also fun to add buttons, little snowflakes and other doodads to make them really fancy...
Several Hugsisters from the PcCrafter message board were kind enough to send me pictures of their snowman creations and I do appreciate their help...sorry to say that I could'nt use all the pictures but here's a sampling of what you can do with this simple piece of art...
I think these are wrapped around microwave popcorn...
love the little jingle bells!
Lifesaver snowmen are the cutest! It looks like she used the finger of some knitted gloves for the hat...and added some tiny snowflakes and yarn for the scarf...cute,cute,cute!
This is your basic Hershey bar with a felt hat...I sold a bunch of snowmen just like this last year at my craft shows...they where my best sellers!So there you have it...my gift to you...again...now go forth and craft my friends... This lil' snowman was created to give others joy... and I hope that he will continue to make people smile for years to come...Hope you have a wonderful, joyful, Christmas season.
Hugs, Laurie

Just to let you know that I made these cute snowmen (in pink) as baby shower door prizes. WHAT A BIG HIT! Everyone was asking for the pattern. Just so you know, I gave you the credit! Thanks for the cutest idea I've seen in a long time.

Thanks so much! Those are absolutely adorable! I'm going to use them for my 7 year old daughter's class party this Friday. So much fun!
I am so glad you have this posted, so I can share the link with friends. I've had many want the graphic. I've always told them they needed to get it from you, the artist, but it wasn't available. Now it is! Thank you!
Thanks, Laurie, for making this available again this year! It's just so cute and versatile and I know a lot of crafters have been looking for it.
I am looking for cute ideas for my 9 year old. She wants to make and sell something to raise money to buy toys for kids at Riley Hospital. She chose "Smiles for Riley" as her logo. Thanks for the idea!!
Thank you, thank you for making these available. You are the BEST! I have bought some of your clip art sets from PC Crafter and really like them and gets lots of compliments when I use them for different things. I always tell them about you!
Helloooooooooo..soo glad I found you....someone sent me a link to your blog...I love papercrafting although I do it just off and on...Just purchased a Cricut and am learning on this. Just another toy. But thank you soo much for your generosity in all the cute templates and design graphics...

Thank you very much for sharing this great snowman with us! I made some for stocking stuffers at work and put one on a pringles can filled with candy for a birthday gift! Thanks!!!!
Hi Laurie,I found your snowman wrapper at GardenWeb's Crafts board and it is adorable. I tried to download to make wrappers for my grandchildren, but due to user (me) error I'm sure,can't seem to download it. Is it available other than a zip file? I'll ask DH for help, but for some reason our computer doesn't like zip files.
Would love to use your graphic if possible!!
Thanks,Cindy Sherritt

Laurie, I just happened to find you by one of the sew forums I belong to, and I am so glad that I did! I LOVE the snowman candy wrapper that you shared with us and gave it to several of my friends for Christmas. All of them were so impressed and wanted to know where I got such a cute idea. I gave them your name and told them how to find your blog.
I have also gone to PC Crafters and am using some of your art from there.
Thanks again for sharing your talent and creativity with us !
Sandra
Laurie,
I LUV your artwork, and am one of MANY who can't wait for your next creatable !!!
All I want for Christmas this year is a "Reindeer Creatable"... the deer from your "Christmas Sampler 2" is adorable.... please, Please, PLEASE !!!

I have been using thiws graphic for two years now and had to thank you - I know it's late, but you have to realize it has taken a life of it's own. Try putting a camo cap on him and it turns into a Kernel Popper to be given as gifts to our military! There's snow stopping him - again, thnks
I was wondering if you would be so kind to send me the poem that goes with your adorable snowman candy wrappers.

Wasn't sure where the best place to post but I LOVE this pattern but I'm having trouble figuring out how you downsized them for the rolos and livesavers - these are just precious!!!!

Thank, Sherry
This past Christmas my sister and I flew to London on Christmas Day. I made the Snowman Candy Bars and handed them out to every employee we came in contact with that day. After all they were working on Christmas day so I could take my trip. We attached a sticker on the back thanking them for being a part of our trip of a lifetime. Before we even got on the plane (we were flying BA) we were upgraded to business class! During the flight every single flight attendant came by to meet us and get their candy bar. They all commented that no one had ever done anything so nice for them! One even told us that we had restored her faith in humanity! As we left the plane we were presented with a bottle of champagne! Never under-estimate how a simple gesture and acknowledgment of someone and the job they are doing will do for a person. More than that, it made us feel good when we gave out our candy bars. It made our trip even better than we could have imagined and one that we will never forget.
Thanks for the snowman pattern. How do I change the size to fit life savers?
can someone help me as I downloaded
the very cute snowman freebie but it won't let me open to print or copy and paste or anything. HELP please.
These are the cutest! Thank you so much for the download! You are very generous!
Thanks for leaving this link active!!! I love your work and have tons of the PC Crafter graphics
These are darling! How sweet of you to share the pattern! When I make these, I will make a link for you to see. :0) Thanks so much!
Thank you!!!

Laurie,
Thanks for sharing this freely. I haven't used it yet, but plan on doing some for Christmas gifts this year.
-Christel
Found you by way of another blogger who did a video and gave you credit. Oh my gosh, these are so darn adorable. Bought my supplies last night and am making them for a family Thanksgiving dinner. They will be table favors. You rock. Thank you for your generous sharing of a template.
Help!! I cannot figure out the 4 share site. I love you rwork and would like to be able to download this cute snowman.
Thank you so much, Laurie, for this cute snowman wrapper! I'm going to have fun with this one!
I was directed here by Christine of Dolcreations who has recently made some of these great wrappers. They are so lovely and I so appreciate you sharing them! Warmest wishes, Lesley
Hi Laurie,
I'll be featuring your snowman candy bar wrappers on my blog and also another blog (I'm a guest contributor for another blogger). Of course, with credit to you and a link back to your blog. They are darling wrappers! Thanks for the freebie.
By the way, you'll get loads of traffic : ) Have a wonderful Christmas.
I have never been to your blog before. I saw this over at The Beehive Cottage.......every year I have a Snowman Party for my grandchildren. I am going to make this up.......and send it in the mail as their invitation.
Very cute and thank you so for your generosity! It is much appreciated!
Merry CHRISTmas,

That snowman is soooo adorable! Thanks so much for the download, Laurie.
I'm having a problem that someone else commented on... I was able to download the file, but it won't let me print it. Can you or anyone help me, please?
vwizniuk (at) pris (dot) ca
Found you through a friend on FB who posted a link to someone who had a great video on how to make your snowmen. She also linked to your site. I just wanted to say thank you for the free gift. These are totally adorable in everyway. I love them. I don't sew but I think I can handle a straight zig zag stitch. I can't wait to make these.
Also is the 8oz. paper down load the one for the hershey bar? I downloaded it and I just need to print and copy them. Thanks again.
Jen - CraftOManiac.blogspot.com You should come by my blog this evening and link these up to my craft link party CraftOManiac Monday. ;)
These are so stinkin' cute and so easy to make. Thanks so much for sharing the download again this year. We've made 30+ snowmen to give to neighbourhood children, daycare and local kindergarten. Your generosity helps us all spread Christmas cheer.
Merry Christmas to you and your family.
I just saw another crafter make a set of these snowmen (giving full credit to you). I followed her link and downloaded the file for myself. Thanks so much for sharing. I'm not sure that I'll make these these year as I am pretty much set at this point, but have the file saved. Your little snowmen are ADORABLE and this is such a wonderful idea.
Blessings to you and yours this Christmas!
Kate
Hi - I just want to let you know - a lot of people borrow your wonderful thoughtful idea - it's a shame more people don't thank you - considering how many have downloaded the pattern.
thanks and have a great holiday!
Sheryl
Thank you for sharing! My kids loved these!!!
Thank you sooooo much! I have made some and they are pretty cool! I will be showcasing them on my blog tomorrow!

wow...thanks so much for the freebie. I'm going to share on my blog SerenityScrappers.blogspot.com and let everybody come on by and check it out. .These really can be used for SO many different occassions.. thanks again!
These are wonderful! Wish I'd seen them before Christmas.. I would have made for my primary children!!
Is it too nosy to ask how much you sell them for at a craft show. I have never done a craft show and do NOT plan on doing one!! I was just being curious!!
Wonderful! Thanks so much for sharing! I've downloaded it and now I'm off to make them. :D
These are the cutest candy bar wrappers I think I have ever seen! I was not able to download the template due to my Corporate proxy server block - do you think you can email me the template please? I am always looking for cute ideas for our children to make in Sunday School and this idea will be so cute for the holiday for them to give out as gifts! email address mary.hashagen@frhi.com thank you for sharing your beautiful talent with everyone! God has blessed you with a beautiful gift!
Hi...I just found you through "Anything But Perfect", your snowman freebie is absolutely adorable!! I just downloaded it!! All of the files open with no problem except for the the file labeled "thumbs"...is it suppose to open? Thanks again for sharing!! =)
Just wanted to say THANKS for the download! I just bought some fleece and am going to try and make these! My hershey bars are the thin ones though - so I'll have to cut off the bottom charcoal to fit! But these will be a hit (I hope) at our November craft fair!!
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!
Maria
Thanks for sharing this.
Maybe I missed it.. but how did you do the Life savers ones?
Hi Laurie, I love, love, love your snowman candy wrapper. I tried last year and again this year to download this file. I am able to download and view the image but that is it. I cannot print it. Very frustrating. Is it possible for you to send it to me as a jpg? I would appreciate it so, so much.
Thank you,
Nicole
Hi Nicole...sorry you are having trouble with the download...I will be happy to send it to you but I need your email...email me at lauriefurnell@gmail.com and we'll figure it out!
Wow this is awesome and just want I am looking for. I downloaded the file and unzip it. But cant open it in a usable file. I have tired power point also and that doesn't work. what format is it in?
If you can send me a workable file I would really appreciate it.

I can't thank you enough Laurie for the snowman printout as well as the awesome ideas. My first ever craft fair is this month and I've made up lots of the Hershey bar snowmen. The few friends/family who have seen them already have LOVED them! Thanks for your generosity!
I'm not able to get the pattern for these. They're so adorable and my kids have their hearts set on making them for gifts. Can you help? Thanks!
Oh my goodness~ these are so very cute.
Would you mind if I shared these with my readers and I would like to your blog?
I know my readers would love to see these. I am thinking all my stockings need to have these cute snowmen peeking out this Christmas.
I am off to check out your great blog~
Blessings~

You have to make sure that you extract the file first before trying to print it. In windows 7 I did it by right clicking on the zip file and choosing extract all. Once it was extracted, I could print.
I just found this download. Thank you so much for sharing. Can't wait to use it. ;)
Thank you so so much! We are planning to give gifts to the children of our school and this is such a brilliant idea! Hugs from Greece!

Hello again. Ok so my little one brought home one of these from Sunday school and I thought it was so cute I wanted to find out how to make them. I just posted about them on my blog with a link back to your free printable. I also have an explanation there on how I got the printable to work.
