Instructions

  • Download the template, print it, and cut out the pieces you need.
  • Begin by squeezing paint onto a paper plate or paint well.
  • Next, dip the edge of a plastic fork into the paint and stamp it repeatedly onto the beard template to create texture. Repeat until the entire beard is filled.
  • Once the paint is dry, glue the face piece just above the painted beard.
  • Now, glue the eyebrows above the eyes.
  • Glue the hat fluff along the bottom edge of the hat piece.
  • Complete the Santa hat by gluing the hat pom to the pointy side of the hat.
  • Glue the finished hat to the top of Santa’s head.
  • After that, glue the mustache where the face meets the beard.
  • Take the nose and glue it in the center of the face, slightly overlapping the mustache.
  • Finally, glue the cheeks on both sides of the nose.
