Seasonal exterior home enhancements
For a weather-resistant and easy-to-change snowman window decoration, consider using Command Brand Outdoor Light Clips and dry-erase markers. Here's a step-by-step guide to creating this festive design:
- Attach the Command Outdoor Light Clips: Start by attaching the clips to your window in the shape of a snowman’s outline. Typically, three circles stacked vertically will represent the head, middle, and base of the snowman. These clips are designed to hold lightweight items outdoors and can be reused without damaging your window.
- Use the clips as a guide: Once the clips are in place, use them as a frame or guide to draw the snowman's shape directly on the window with dry-erase markers. This allows you to create bright, colorful snowman features such as eyes, nose, buttons, scarf, and hat directly on the glass. Because they are erasable, you can easily update or reuse the decoration year after year.
- Add decorative accents: You can also hang light or decorative accents like mini ornaments, bows, or even Christmas string lights within or on the clips to enhance the snowman's look. The clips hold these items securely without leaving residue.
This approach creates a reusable, interactive snowman window decoration that is perfect for holiday decorating without permanent adhesives or paint. While none of the search results describe this exact method, they suggest similar window art techniques using reusable materials and markers that can easily be adapted.
Command outdoor clips are ideal for holding lightweight decorations on glass without damage, and dry-erase markers are commonly used for seasonal window art because they wash off cleanly.
