Snowmen S'mores - Fall Quarter 2008

We started this art project during the beginning of summer so that we had enough time to complete the ~120 individualized snowmen s'mores gifts by December. With the creativity of and help from the sisters of Sigma Omicron Pi at UCSD, we had snowmen that were decorated in every way possible. From a hula dancer to a reindeer, we had a truly amazing range of snowmen.

On Sunday December 14, 2008, we had the opportunity to pass out the gifts to the seniors at La Jolla Nursing and Rehabilitation Center. Watching their faces light up made the work we put into the gifts worthwhile. It's amazing how the holiday spirit can warm up the soul.
