Plaster of Paris Snowmen
Creating plaster of Paris figures can be such fun and the best is painting the figures afterwards. If you cannot find molds in your area, silicone molds work also well. These snowmen are a cute example of what you can create. These can be used as ornaments, as package decorations or for other decorating purposes such as the tree in the second picture.
