Here's an ornament that not only pays tribute to the guy who'll shimmy down the chimney, but is also jolly good fun to make.
| Prep Time: Under 1 hour | |
| What you need: | |
| Red felt
Scissors Pushpin Monofilament Wooden craft spoon White faux fur Glue or glue dots Self-adhesive googly eyes Small white pom-pom | |
| Seasons: Christmas | |
| Materials: craft spoon, felt | |
| Instructions: | |
| 1. |  Cut out a red felt hat that's slightly taller than the
craft spoon handle (ours is about 3 inches). Use a pushpin to
poke a hole through the felt about 1/4 inch below the tip of the
hat. Thread a 7-inch length of monofilament through the hole and
knot the ends to create a loop. |
| 2. | Cut out a fur strip to trim the hat and glue it in place. Then cut out a fur beard. |
| 3. | Glue the hat and the beard to the spoon as shown, then stick the googly eyes to the wood. Finally, glue a small white pom-pom to the tip of the hat. |
