No-Sew Sock Santa Craft
- beige sock
- 1 or 2 fluffy red socks
- rice
- rubber bands
- cotton wool (or stuffing)
- red pom pom
- wiggle eyes stickers for the eyes
- felt glue
- hot glue gun
Ignore the black color on the first few pictures – you’ll be using a beige socking (the black one is from another craft sock craft tutorial). Fill the sock with rice. Once generously filled (not to the top though) tie the sock with a rubber band or two. Separate the body and the head with another rubber band. We recommend using two again, in case one would break.
Take a fluffy sock and “dress” your Santa. You can secure the sock with some felt glue or hot glue. Make the hat from another red sock. Attach beard with hot glue. Also attach a small pom pom nose. Time to make the eyes, you can either draw eyes with black paint or stick two wiggle eye stickers. You can use some pink paint to make the pink cheeks – smudge the paint with your fingers.
