This is what I made for my nephew for Christmas. I also made one for myself because they were so cute. I also found this idea on Pinterest.
The can is a large fruit can that I got from a school cafeteria. I sponge painted it green, white, and blue. Then I painted the nose orange once the white dried, and then I took a black sharpie marker and did the eyes and mouth and letters. Then I filled it with white pom balls that I made out of yarn.
This is what the balls look like inside of the tin. I took white yarn and wrapped it around a binder 150 times. Then I took it off the binder and tied yarn around it to section it off. I had 4 sections. then I cut the ends and the middle of each section to create a pom-pom. I trimmed up to make it into a ball shape when necessary. 12 poms fit into the can. So I had to repeat the yarn steps a few times.
