This Craft Stick Santa Ornament was inspired by a Spiral Santa Hat I once saw. You can find my inspiration on here. I love the whimsy the pipe cleaner hat adds to our Santa ornament. We did the same type of hat on our Elf Ornament.

Supplies
- Craft stick
- Red paint
- Googly eyes
- Black ribbon
- Yellow button
- Red pipe cleaner
- White pompom (.5inch)
- Cotton ball
- String
Directions
1. Start off by painting the craft stick red leaving a small part towards the top unpainted. Paint the top 1/4 red, leave a small part unpainted and then paint the rest red. Allow to dry.
2. Attach two googly eyes to the unpainted part of the craft stick. Pull a piece from the cotton ball, mold it to form a beard for Santa and glue to the craft stick.
3. Glue a white pompom to one end of a red pipe cleaner. We used a glue gun to attach the the pompom to insure it would stay in place.
4. Wrap a red pipe cleaner around the top of the craft stick to form a hat, so that the the end with the pompom is the top of the hat.
We wrapped the pipe cleaner around the craft stick and then took it off, so you can see how it is wrapped (picture below).
5. Glue a black ribbon around the craft stick near the center for Santa’s belt. Glue a yellow button to the center of the black ribbon.
6. Cut a small piece of ribbon, form a loop and glue to the back of the craft stick to hang the ornament.
