SANTA STAR MAKE-DO / LARGE


I adapted this make-do from a pattern by Homespun From The Heart

Santa and star are made from muslin which has been stuffed with polyester filling.
The star has been color washed in gold paint and mica flakes have been added to the tips of the star.
Santa is lightly stained and has beads for eyes, which are sewn on.
His nose is sculpted and his beard is wool that I've attached with a felting needle.
His hat is made from homespun that has glittery gold thread through it and I've sewn a rusty bell  onto the tip.
Santa is attached to a wooden candlestick that I painted black and lightly distressed.
 Make-do measures 15 inches
