Your child can have a blast creating their own ornament for the tree, and you will have a memory that will last throughout the years. With just some basic materials and a few minutes of time, you can have a Santa star Christmas decoration of your own.


Instructions

2. Use scissors to cut the star shape out of the red craft foam.


3. Paint the bottom two points of the star black to form the boots of your Santa.


4. Tear a few cotton balls into thinner smaller pieces and apply a thin layer of cotton across the middle of the star with glue to form a belt.


5. Make two thin white lines for shirt cuffs towards the end of the two points that are on the side of the star shape.


6. Design the outline of a small Santa Christmas hat on the top point of the star with white craft paint, and place a little black ball of paint to form the tip of the hat.


7. Attach two wiggly craft eyes near the center of the top point of the star underneath the Santa hat.


8. Use white paint to make a nose on the Santa's face under the wiggly eyes.


9. Glue a layer of thin cotton balls underneath the nose of the Santa to form his beard.


10. Poke a hole in the top point of the star and thread a piece of string, yarn, or an ornament hook through the hole to hang your Santa star Christmas decoration on the tree. Visit the resources below for other unique Santa Claus crafts.


Tips Warnings
