How to make a wooden spoon Santa
- Cut strands from the mop head approx 3-4″ long.
- Fold a piece of red felt in half, use the end of the spoon as a guide to cut a hat-shaped triangle, giving you two pieces.
- Hot glue the edges of the triangle together, leaving the bottom open.
- Stuff the hat with a piece of newspaper.
- Apply hot glue inside the open edge of the hat and place it on the large end of the wooden spoon.
- Use the strands of the mop to create a beard by hot-gluing it directly onto the backside of the spoon. Glue on a few strands into a ‘u’ shape for a mustache.
- Cut longer strands of mop strings to make a fuzzy brim for Santa’s hat. Leave the ends long so they can be hot glued to the opposite side of the spoon.
- Use a wood bead for a nose, and the black marker to draw on eyes.
How to make a wooden spoon Snowman
- Paint the backside of a wooden spoon white, and allow it to dry.
- Make a triangle shape from air dry clay and allow it to dry (or put in a 200-degree oven until it turns white). Paint with orange paint.
- Cut a pipe cleaner in half. Hot glue the pipe cleaner onto the large end along the edge of the spoon.
- Cover the ends of the pipe cleaner with pom-poms to make earmuffs.
- Tie a ribbon around the handle of the spoon for a scarf.
- Use the black marker to draw on eyes and a cute smile!
