Santa Heads Made From Detergent Bottles

Mrs. Claus Made From Bleach Bottle Post By Donna Evans (Guest Post) (01/26/2007) I have seen Mr. and mrs. Claus made from recycled bleach bottles. I have the Pattern for Santa, but not for Mrs. Claus. Can someone help me out? email address: sass.evans AT imagewireless.ca RE: Santa Heads Made From Detergent Bottles Post by ThriftyFun (4042) | (10/23/2005) Profile | Blog! | Contact (Sent in the contest form) Santa Head Made from a Bleach Bottle Materials needed 1 bleach bottle Large piece of Red Felt 1 sheet of pink felt 2 google eyes Red Pompom for nose 2 Large skeins of Worsted weight White yarn. Cut bleach bottle in half. Cut so that the handle is in front of you and cut sideways. Take the half without the handle and hot glue the pink felt on the bottle for the face you can glue on the pompom and the eyes. Cut two large Triangles from Red felt. Glue to top half of bleach bottle for hat. Two make the fur on the hat Take the white yarn and wrap it around a three inch long piece of cardboard 25 times. Slip off the cardboard and tie in the center with a small piece of yarn. Now with your sisscors punch a hole in the Bleach bottle below the red felt and push the two ends of the middle tying yarn through the Hole. Tie a knot in the yarn to keep it from coming back out. It all depends on how thick you want the fur as to how many you make.. Make a white Pom Pom for the tip of his hat. Take 8 inch piece of cardboard wrap it 25 times and tie in the middle and tuck up under red Pompom nose in the same manner as for the the fur. This makes Santa's moustache Use the same techinque to make Santa's Beard. It will take three rows of poufs to make his beard. Good Luck and have fun. You can use sparkle yarn and you could add some rosy cheeks with a little bit of blush. You could also make Mrs. Claus by make poufs of grey yarn to make her hair. Bend some wire into a pair of glasses and add a big bow at the bottom to finish her off.
