Remove labels from milk jugs using hot, soapy water. If residue remains, cover the area in cooking oil and let sit for 10 minutes. Remove residue with a scrub brush.
Cut out facial features (eyes, nose, mouth) using felt. Add details with pipe cleaners to carrot nose, if desired. Glue to flat side of jug.
Make earmuffs by gluing big pom pom balls to either end of 3 pipe cleaners twisted together. Glue to jug. Make scarf by cutting a long, thin length of felt (or glue several strips together). Snip both ends of scarf to create fringe.
Cut slits in back of milk cartons and stuff battery-powered twinkle lights inside.
