Who knew that in our time Christmas decorations from the childhood of our parents and grandmothers would be fashionable, and that people would buy them for unrealistic money. One of these toys is Santa Claus made of cotton wool, who stands under the tree and brings us gifts on New Year's Eve.
It turns out that you don't have to run around flea markets and overpay money. You can make such a Santa Claus yourself. To do this, you need to stock up on patience, time and mood.
For work you will need
Materials:
- cotton wool (it should be in layers, not lumps);
- glue (starch + water);
- wire for the frame;
- toilet paper (for papier-mâché);
- foil for a blank;
- paints (acrylic and watercolors);
- wooden stand;
- synthetic winterizer;
- threads.
Tools:
- nippers;
- brushes (hard - for glue, synthetics No. 6 flat, No. 1 round - for painting);
- scissors;
- sewing needle.
Before starting work on the manufacture of Santa Claus, we prepare a mass of papier-mâché. Add a tablespoon (no top) of starch to half a glass of cold water, bring to a boil. Separately tear the toilet paper into small pieces. Add paper to the resulting warm glue, and rub the resulting mass well with your fingers. It should be like dough.
Beginning of work
Head ... The best option if we find at home a head from an old Santa Claus doll. But it is not always possible to find such wealth in our apartment, so we will use what we have at hand. We need food foil 50-60 cm long. We make a large ball out of it, and begin to soften it to the size and shape of a chicken egg.
Where the eyes of Santa Claus should be - we press the beads. We put a layer of papier-mâché on our disc. It is very important to know! - each layer of papier-mâché should dry well. Then we sculpt a "carrot" from the mass and apply it where the nose is. We make small balls - we get cheeks, chin, forehead. Don't forget to dry.
Now we put some of our mass in the area of \u200b\u200bthe eyes, and shape the eyelids. After the face is ready, we sculpt the back of the head. We dry everything well, and grind the face of Santa Claus with sandpaper.
The head is ready, now we need to make a face painting. We take white or ivory acrylic paint, add pink color to it. You can add watercolors. Stir and get the color we need for the face of Santa Claus. Apply the paint with a flat synthetic brush # 6. We make 4-5 layers. Dry each layer well. Paint the eyes with a round brush # 1. Apply pink paint on a sponge or a piece of foam rubber and tamp the cheeks.
Torso ... We calculate the proportions as follows: six of our heads should fit into the height of Santa Claus. For the frame, we need, preferably, a three-core braided copper wire.
Cut the braid between the wires from above to shoulder level. At the top, we will put on the head on the middle pin, and bend the two side wires horizontally - we get the shoulders, then we bend it down, and we get the frame under the arms. In the area of \u200b\u200bthe palms, we make a loop. From below we cut the braid to the line of the hips, bend it horizontally - we get the hips, and bend the wire down - these will be our Grandfather's legs. We lift the middle part of the wire up, strengthening the spine. We immediately bend our arms a little at the elbows.
We cut the synthetic winterizer into ribbons 3 cm wide.And we begin to tightly wrap our frame. We wrap the neck, shoulders, arms (separately), the body. The hands of Santa Claus will be in mittens, therefore, at the ends of the wire, at the same time, we give the desired shape with a padding polyester.
In the lower part of our Santa Claus doll, the legs from under the suit will not be visible, so you should wrap the two legs with padding polyester together until you get a blank for the suit. For this procedure, we need 50-60 cm of padding polyester. We take a needle and thread and fasten our structure with stitches. Having received such a torso, we see that our Grandfather Frost begins to take on a human form.
clothing ... Now we start working with cotton wool. This technique is called cotton papier-mâché. To begin with, we prepare the glue in the same way as for papier-mâché, only we add a little blue or blue watercolor paint to the glue. As a result, when the cotton wool dries, it will have a cold, bluish tint, like snow.
- We put the first layer of clothing on the doll itself. We spread the cotton wool in a thin layer (5-7mm) on the table, and, with a brush, coat it well with glue. The pieces of cotton wool should be small. First, we form a hat on the head of Santa Claus. We iron it with our fingers so that the joints are not visible. Important: we dry well. Following the same principle, we make mittens, sleeves (from mittens to shoulders) and a suit on the body of Santa Claus. We iron our dress well and dry it.
- Second layer. Before doing it, you need to prepare a cotton layer of 50 * 50 cm in size. We lay out the cotton wool on the table with a thin layer (5-7 mm), coat well with glue and leave to dry. While the cotton wool dries up, on a separate sheet of paper we draw up costume patterns for our Santa Claus. We transfer these patterns to an already dried layer of cotton wool.
We will get the following details:
- hat, hat lapel;
- eyebrows, mustache, beard;
- sleeves, cuffs for sleeves;
- mittens;
- the front half of the suit;
- back half of the suit;
- cuffs on the bottom of the suit;
- lapel on the side of the suit;
- collar;
- belt.
The above details must be cut out with scissors, again soak well with glue. This will already be the final, top layer of clothing. We begin to "dress" the doll, immediately laying out the folds and draperies of the clothes. Iron it well with your fingers and let it dry.
Stand ... We take a wooden plank 15 * 15 cm in size, make two holes in it (to glue the wire from the legs). We prepare a cotton layer, 20 * 20 cm in size, impregnate it with glue and put it on our stand. If necessary, there can be two or three such layers. Dry well. There is no need to paint the stand, cotton wool perfectly imitates snow.
We paint the clothes of Santa Claus, while taking into account that in this technique the natural color of cotton wool is highly valued. Apply shadows where necessary.
Completion of making Santa Claus
The final touch remains. We glue our cotton Santa Claus into a stand, give a staff in our hands - it can be a stick for sushi wrapped in thread, a bag with gifts - we make it according to the principle of cotton papier-mâché.
Also, for Santa Claus, a Christmas tree is needed, which can be made from beads. (How to do it, you can find out by).
We are pleased to admire the work done and celebrate the New Year.
On the eve of New Year's holidays, everyone is waiting for miracles, getting ready and trying to observe traditions. The kids are in a hurry to decorate the Christmas tree so that Santa Claus comes faster and gives gifts. Recently, hand-made crafts are becoming popular.
Consider master classes on how to make Santa Claus with your own hands from scrap materials. The phased implementation is understandable for children, so they will create with pleasure and joy.
Fabulous Santa Claus made of felt and fabric seems so cute! I just want to quickly start creating such a beautiful character.
Materials:
- a piece of felt;
- the cloth;
- thread;
- a sprig of pine for decorating a hat.
Manufacturing process:
- First you need to take the Santa Claus template, attach it to the felt, circle it with soap and cut it out.
- Also, according to the stencil, it is necessary to cut out a hat, a beard. The cap in the upper part will have to be pulled off with a braid, so it will turn out to be voluminous.
- At the very end, connect all the parts together, securing them to each other with glue.
To prevent the glue from showing through the material, it is recommended to sew the parts together. However, this process will take a long time.
From the bottle
A beautiful big Santa Claus is made from plastic bottles. The grandfather figurine can be placed under the tree.
First, you need to take the bottle in your hands and visually determine where the body parts will be located: the head, the body, where the beard and belt should be drawn, the cloak. The figure should be proportional.
Paint the fur coat red, make the belt black, the face beige, and the beard white. After drying, put on a sewn cap on your head, attach a mustache and mittens.
From a light bulb
Used bulbs are suitable for creating various Christmas tree toys. To do this, you need to be patient, take a brush and acrylic paints, and get down to creative work.
You need to draw Santa Claus, a fawn, a pine cone or other characters and objects according to your imagination or to spy on similar drawings in the coloring pages.
You can do it in another way. For work, you need glue and semolina. First you need to coat the light bulb with glue, and then roll it in the cereal. After complete drying, paint with paints. You can decorate toys with sparkles, pompoms, rhinestones, beads.
Santa made of toilet paper rolls
A roll or sleeve from toilet paper or paper napkins will be needed to make a pipe through which Santa Claus goes down into the house. The craft turns out to be so bright that children are happy to take on its implementation. Moreover, they have a hope that Santa will come down to them to pamper them with gifts, because the New Year is a holiday of hopes and miracles.
Materials and tools:
- roll of toilet paper;
- cardboard;
- scissors;
- glue;
- paints.
Manufacturing instruction:
- Crafts for the New Year Santa Claus pleases with the ease of implementation. You need to take cardboard, wrap a roll with it and measure out a suitable rectangle. Then cut out the stencil, paint it with red paint and draw black lines - these will be bricks. The result is a blank for the pipe.
- After drying, you will need to glue the workpiece to the roll, wrapping it tightly. You can do without unnecessary steps and immediately paint the roll itself. This will be much faster, but with extra cardboard the craft will be more stable.
- Next, you need to make blanks for a hat with a pompom, socks and mittens made of black cardboard, ordinary strips of red cardboard paper will serve as legs.
- First, let's create a composition when the fabulous grandfather descends into the pipe. To do this, you need to make sure that only legs and a stuck bag of sweets peep out of the pipe.
- And the second composition shows how Santa Claus gets out of the pipe. To do this, you need to slightly raise the grandfather's cap above the level of the pipe and bend and fasten the mittens so that you can see that it rises outward.
The black gift bag can be decorated in a different color, usually it is red. To prevent the gift bag from merging with the pipe, you can draw a black strip along the edge of the red bag.
Santa Claus from ice cream sticks
Previously, ice cream was sold only with wooden sticks, now an excellent material for creativity is available commercially. With a little imagination, you can create a beautiful Christmas wall decoration.
You can make a simple and complex character figurine from sticks. To make a simple figurine, you need to take a stick, paint it accordingly, draw eyes and glue a fur or cotton beard.
To make a complex figure of Santa Claus at home, you need to take several sticks, draw Santa Claus on cardboard. Then glue one stick horizontally - there will be grandfather's eyebrows, and from 5 sticks make a beard. Attach the loop to the horizontal stick, glue the mustache.
From a paper plate
Christmas is a delightful holiday for which you want to thoroughly prepare. Santa Claus can be made from a regular paper plate. By the way, if someone cannot buy a ready-made one, you can do it yourself from papier-mâché.
Materials:
- a plate of paper;
- brush;
- acrylic multi-colored paints;
- red velvet paper - 1 sheet;
- white paper;
- eyes;
- scissors;

Paper Santa Claus
The art of origami is a complex but fun creative process. It was born a long time ago. From childhood, we remember how our parents made boats for us, and we let them along the streams. They themselves also tried to learn this craft.

Modular origami Santa Claus - master class
We will need: sheets of A4 paper: blue - 14 pieces for 211 modules, white - 13 pieces for 207 modules, pink - 1 sheet for 17 modules.
We divide each sheet into 16 rectangles, from which we will make modules.
Step one. Bend the rectangular sheet in half lengthwise. With the help of one more fold, outline the middle line.
Step two. Bend the edges of the folded rectangle to the middle, as shown in the photo. Turn the part over and bend the bottom edges up.
Step three. We fold the corners, bending them over the large triangle, and then we bend these corners inward. We bend the resulting figure in half - so we have learned how to make a module. Now, in the same way, we make the required number of modules, indicated above, from the rest of the paper.
Step four. We start making crafts. We take 5 white modules and place them, as in the photo (we place the module of the upper row with the smaller side up). Next, we collect a chain of 3 rows of white modules. Each row consists of 25 pieces.
Step five. We close the chain in a ring and turn it over. Next, we perform 3 rows with blue modules. From the seventh row we make a beard. To do this, insert 2 white modules with the smaller side out. Insert the rest of the blue modules of the 7th row as usual.
Step five. In the 8th row we fix 3 white modules, as usual, with the long side, the rest of the modules are blue. With each next row, add one white module on each side of the beard.
Step six. In row 11, we insert one red module in the middle of the beard - this is the mouth. The 12th row consists of white modules. We put them on blue modules with the smaller side outward, on white modules (beard) - with the long side, as usual. In the 13th row, opposite the red module, we dress the white with the long side outward, and 2 pink modules each with the smaller side (see the photo).
Step seven. In the 14th row, we put on 6 pink modules with the smaller side, and we put on the white modules as usual. 15 row - we put on 17 white modules and 8 pink ones. In rows 16 and 17, we put on all white modules with the smaller side out - this is a hat.
Step eight. The last 18th row consists of blue modules with the smaller side out. We collect hands from 3 white modules and 5 blue ones. We glue the finished eyes and insert the spout (detail of the children's mosaic). Santa Claus made of paper using the modular origami technique is ready. We hope that after studying the master class, the Snow Maiden will appear next to your Santa Claus, made in the same technique.

Diagrams, printouts, drawings
Engage in making New Year's crafts with the children in advance, so that later on to celebrate the holiday in a special way. You can cut snowflakes and shiny stars from foil, prepare greeting cards, glue colorful garlands. But you can't do without the figure of Santa Claus.
There are many different ways to make the main symbol of the New Year. One of the simplest and most affordable is Santa Claus made of cotton wool.
Decades ago, voluminous toys, including Santa Claus, made of cotton papier-mâché, were very popular. Try to make a bright, original craft from cotton pads.
Master class: Santa Claus on the Christmas tree
To hang the toy on the tree, it must be light. Therefore, in addition to cotton pads, take:
- an empty plastic bottle, such as a vitamin bottle
- felt-tip pens, paints;
- scissors;
- glue.
If you plan to put the craft, and not hang it, then you need to make the bottle heavier or take a glass one.
The bubble will be the body of the craft; it must be carefully pasted over with cotton pads. To make hands, divide the cotton pad into two parts. Twist each thin part with a small bag and glue the wide part of the resulting bag on the sides of the body.
The head can be made in two ways:
- Blind from plasticine, it is better from light, and then glue over with cotton pads. Such a head will easily attach to the lid - the “neck” of the figurine. Make a hat for Santa Claus from plasticine.
- The head is made of cotton wool using the felting method. Roll up a ball of pieces of cotton wool, gradually forming a craft of the desired size with soapy hands. After the head of the figurine is dry, coat it with a 1: 1 solution of glue and water. Apply the solution with a brush. Glue the dried ball to the cap of the bubble. The hat can be made from a piece of material or knitted. For a better hold, place it on glue.
The craft is ready, but there is still not enough beard and fur coat for the figurine to take on the appearance of Santa Claus.
Prepare paints or gouache. Color the fur coat red, leaving a white edging on the clothes. If you want to add expressiveness to the craft, glue a white edging made of cotton pads on the sleeves and on the bottom of the fur coat on the dried paint. A large collar can be cut. Do not forget to paint the part of the hands where Santa Claus has "mittens".
Start painting your face. Add blush, gently highlight the eyes, nose. Cut and glue the mustache and beard from cotton pads. It is enough to use 2-3 layers of cotton pads for the beard to make it "fluffier". Start glueing the beard from the bottom layer. Draw a mouth between the mustache and beard.
A real Santa Claus does not come without gifts, so make a bag for the toy - take any colored paper napkin, put a tight ball of cotton wool in it and tie it with a bright thin ribbon. The gift bag is ready.
Crafts, which will surely become a decoration of the holiday, can be made not only using plastic bottles or glass bubbles. There are many options: paper, thread, clay, textiles. Be sure to involve children in the process of creating a Santa Claus figurine. Make a craft using cotton wool, colored paper or cardboard - this is one of the easiest ways, even kids will be happy to take part in it.
Before making the applique, draw out the outline of Santa Claus on paper, where you can show all your imagination. Choose the material for the cap, decorate the background of the applique. Underline the contour of the figure with paints, felt-tip pen or tape. Yes, and Santa Claus himself can be portrayed standing, walking.
Master class: the original figure of Santa Claus
The unusualness of the craft lies in the fact that the face is not painted, but sculpted. If an artist takes on the job, then the New Year's character will be similar to a real grandfather.
For this craft, you will need various materials:
- foil;
- salty dough;
- wire;
- beads, buttons;
- brush, paints;
- plastic bottle;
- synthetic winterizer.
The head frame can be made from foil. Wrap a piece of wire in a ball of this shiny material. Prepare a salted craft dough and place it over a ball. Insert beads or small buttons in place of the eyes. And start sculpting the face of your grandfather. Form cheeks and lips from pliable dough.
Using water, attach the pieces of dough - nose, ears. Make small wrinkles on your face. Make sure that the expression on your face turns out to be good-natured: Santa Claus is a kind character.
Then send the head to the oven to dry.
Now it's time to paint and varnish it.
The head must be attached to the body. To do this, select the appropriate size plastic bottle. Remove the cover from it and punch a few holes in it. Insert the wire into the holes and twist.
Screw the cap together with the head to the bottle; pebbles and pebbles can be used to make it heavier.
Wrap a thick wire around the bottle and "bring" it out on your hands. The frame for the hands can be wrapped with padding polyester, pasted over the entire body with cotton wool, and the hands, if desired, with cotton pads.
