This is a cute gift for around $5 depending on the type candy you use. The bottom is a glass vase type jar and the top a glass bowl. I bought both in the craft section at Wal-Mart. Just paint a face on the snowman and three buttons on his belly. The small bowl sits on the large jar. The toboggan was $1 at Dollar General and the scarf is scrap fabric. You can do these in many themes. Last year I did a patriotic scarf for my son's male Sunday School teacher.

I am hosting a cookie dough exchange party tonight for my mom's group and this will be the door prize.

Too cute!! In order to make him all white, you could also do almond bark with crushed peppermint in it.

What size toboggan did you use? Adult sized or infant toddler sized?

The infant size works best. I wanted a red toboggan but could not find one last night. I am going to stop right now and see if I can get a red one.
