Place with a little glue the white sticks forming the beard, so that the ends are at the edge of the red card. In line with them, place the two red sticks so that they meet in a vertex, forming the hat. Finally, place the white stick that is perpendicular, to finish making the hat. D 4. Dilute a little red paint in water and, with a small brush, make two circles on the white part to make Santa's cheeks. With a black marker, he paints his mouth. Put some glue in the mobile eyes and put them to make the face of the doll.
