Santa Suit Baubles – Christmas Crafts

Have some fun this Christmas with these fab Santa Suit Baubles. Perfect to hang off the Christmas tree or even a window! Suitable for all ages. Read the simple instructions below to get started:

Art materials you will need:

• Coloured card – in red, black and gold
• Gold cord
• Scissors
• Glue

Instructions for your Santa Suit Baubles:

1. Cut out a circle of red card, approx. 8cm in diameter. It may help to draw around a circular object, such as a cup.
2. Cut out a thin (1cm wide) strip of black card. Glue it across the centre of the red circle. This will resemble Santa’s belt.
3. Next, cut out a small ‘buckle’ from gold card. Stick it onto the black belt.
4. Lastly, cut out a length of gold cord. Fold the cord in half then glue the loop to the back of the red circle. Your first Santa suit bauble is now complete.
5. Repeat the steps above to make the required number of baubles. When finished, hang them on your Christmas tree to decorate
