Materials

  • Colored cardstock
  • Scissors
  • Glue stick
  • Santa template

Instructions

  • Download the Santa template, print, and cut out the pieces you need.
  • Begin to make the Santa by folding the half-circle body piece symmetrically in half. Put a small line of glue at the end and glue just the ends of the paper together. Arrange Santa's body so the point is the top.
  • Place the belt in the middle of Santa's body and glue it in place. Cut off any excess paper that hangs off the side.
  • Glue the outer buckle to the middle of the band.
  • Next, place the inner buckle in the middle of the outer buckle.
  • If using the big-eyed Santa, glue the eyes on.
  • Glue the Santa's beard to the outside of the Santa's head.
  • Place the mustache in the middle of the head, just above the mouth, and glue it in place.
  • Create Santa's hat by gluing the hat fluff to the bottom of the hat.
  • Next, glue the pom to the top of the hat.
  • Position Santa's hat to the top of his head and glue it in place.
  • Glue Santa's head to the top of his body.
  • Now make Santa's arm by gluing the sleeve puff onto the place of the arms when the hand and arm meet.
  • Finish off by taking the completed arms and glue them angled upward and outward to the top and back of Santa's body.
