Santa napkin holder

So here we are, the time is speeding by. Christmas is right around the corner, and we are frantically trying to get everything done.
STOP and take a breath. We need to enjoy this time of year. Instead of getting crazy, get happy!
Make a list, check it twice. Not to see who is naughty or nice, but to check that we are not forgetting anything. Then sleep peacefully and wake to another fun day of getting ready for the most fun time of the year!
I made these cute napkin holders that I told my guests that they were welcome to take home as gifts. Simple and easy and quick. You can make a ton and give away. My mom gave me the pattern and the supplies which I just found hidden amongs my other Christmas stuff this year as I was searching for something else. Thanks mom, we love you and miss you, but are carrying on many of your traditions for this time of year. xoxoxoox

Today project is:
Santa Napkin Holder
you will need:
white felt
pink felt
red pompons
green sequines
red napkins
tacky  glue

(Again, I'm very frustrated about my pictures getting tipped over.

ArG!)

Anyway, The strip across the top is 7 inches. and the bottom of the beard to the top of the strip is about 6 inches.

So make your own pattern, the beard is not an exact science. Then cut a hole for the eyes and nose.

You will glue the pink square behind the 'hole' for the eyes. Use Tacky Glue, it works best.

Then glue eyes and nose onto the front.

Then when dried, bring the flaps together in the back and staple it together.

Slip a red napkin into the back and VOILA you have a cute santa napkin holder.

 

tip of the day:

When you get Christmas cards, rip off the return address label from the envelope, that way you have a record of who sent you cards. You can then make sure those people get a card from you.

 

Happy Christmas preps....
