Total Time: 30 minutes

Supplies:

• red tissue paper
• glue
• cardboard tube
• string
• cotton
• markers

Steps:

1. To make Santa's hat, cut a piece of tissue paper so it fits around the cardboard tube. Fold the edges inward.

 
2. Put glue on the folded sections.

 
3. Wrap the tissue paper around the tube about half an inch down from the edge. Secure the other glued portion all the way up. Repeat this step on the bottom to make Santa's jacket. Attach halfway down the tube.

4. Start pressing the top of the tissue paper together to make his pointed hat.

 
5. Take a piece of string and fold it in half. Glue the ends inside the cardboard tube and pull the looped end out from the top of the hat. Glue the pointed tip of the hat shut against the string.

 
6. Draw whatever facial features you like on the bare cardboard tube.

 
7. Put some glue down on the edges of his hat, the top of his hat, and around his beard area.
