The fastest ways to make Santa Claus with your own hands

During the New Year, Santa Claus must be present in your surroundings. You can buy his figurine, but it will be much nicer to make it yourself. Moreover, there are several simple and quick methods that can be adopted.

Real Santa made from a napkin

Take a standard napkin. Then a series of manipulations are carried out with it:

• The upper corner must be bent so as to form a cap.
• then a pompom is glued to it (it can be rolled out of a piece of paper);
• Punch a hole in the hat using a hole punch. A string is threaded into it.

All that remains is to draw the face and color the parts of Santa’s body. Ready! You can rejoice and admire. By analogy, grandfathers can be made from paper.

Santa Claus made of sticks

To create a figurine you will need:

• ice cream sticks;
• cotton wool;
• red felt;
• pompon;
• artificial eyes (or you can draw them);
• glue gun;
• brush;
• paints;
• scissors.

One stick is placed horizontally. Then you should glue the others - as in the example. Next you have to paint the body and wait for it to dry.

Then the nose and eyes are attached. The beard is made from cotton wool. The hat is made of felt - it’s great if it has a edge. The pompom is made from cotton wool.

The felt version is no worse

You will need to prepare material in three colors - black, gray or red, white, flesh.They also buy cotton fabric (beige), padding polyester, light wool for felting, and wire. They act according to a template.

To make eyes, you can use black beads and threads. We will attach the parts using a glue gun. For decoration, you can take a small bell.

1. Print the template. Cut out parts of the body of the future Frost from it, transfer them to cardboard.
2. Cut out the blanks. Place them on the felt. Again you need to use scissors.
3. We will make the nose from cotton fabric. To do this, cut out 2 circles, which are stuffed with padding polyester and tied with thread.
4. All that remains is to collect Grandfather’s parts by gluing them together.

The face is made of fabric, and padding polyester is used to give it volume. The beard and eyebrows are made of wool, as is the trim. Felt and wire are used for legs and arms.

Boots and mittens are glued to it. It will also be used to make a holder for a bell. It is attached to the hand. The finished Frost looks very original.

Knitted grandfather like from childhood

To create a figurine, you will need a bottle (a champagne container looks ideal), a needle, yarn, threads, a hook, filler, glue, a measuring tape, decor, strands and edges. Take a beige thread. We knit the head with single crochets - you should get a ball. We make the base from red threads - double crochets. You can simply make a circle and then fold it in half.

We knit the torso and arms in circular rows. It needs to be narrowed towards the bottom. The bottle attachment is made with beige yarn. It shouldn't be right next to each other.

Connect her bottom and torso with her arms, having first filled the latter with filler. The approximate dimensions of body parts should look like this:

• body height - about 16 cm;
• width - 30 cm;
• head circumference - 20 cm;
• arm length - 18 cm.

You can knit clothes. Its parameters should be less than the basics. And you can do without it. It's just how you like it.

You need to make both a beard and a hairstyle from strands. All that remains is to glue on the hat, eyes and nose, and decor. Santa Claus turned out beautiful!
