- Age Guideline: 5 Years and Up
- Time Required: 30 minutes (Does not include drying time)
The above age and time guidelines are estimates. This project can be modified to suit other ages and may take more or less time depending on your circumstances.
Materials Needed:
- Thin Ribbon or Yarn
- White Pony Bead
- Red Felt
- 2” Peach or White Pom-pom
- White, Curly Chenille Stem
- Wiggle Eyes
- Craft Glue
- Scissors
Instructions:
Cut a piece of ribbon or yarn long enough to fit your neck as a necklace. Thread the white pony bead onto the ribbon or yarn. Tie the ends of the ribbon or yarn together.
Cut a wide triangle shape out of red felt. Roll the felt triangle into a cone and glue the 2 sides together. Trim the edges if necessary. Glue the point of the hat onto the white pony bead.
Cut a 2” length of the white, curly chenille stem. Glue the chenille stem halfway around the peach or white pom-pom, cutting off any extra. This will be Santa's beard. Glue on the wiggle eyes just above the beard.
Lay the hat down so you cannot see the holes in the bead. Glue Santa's face into the larger opening of the felt hat. Make sure when the necklace is put on the face looks straight ahead.
