You guys – I did it again!
I took a SUPER POPULAR post of mine this time of year and recreated it in another form, so the fun doesn’t stop!
So be sure to keep “scrolling” down this post because you don’t want to miss this EXTRA EASY Santa Stuck In Chimney kid craft idea!!! #gluedtomycrafts
Cardboard Tube Santa Stuck In Chimney Craft
The creativity in my blood is just flowing so much right now. What started as one thing, led to the next and here we are today!
For this latest tutorial, I used simple supplies like a recycled toilet paper roll, a plain styrofoam ball, cotton balls and my trusty glue gun. That’s it! I reinvented the wheel here on Glued To My Crafts and “possibly” made it better! And although Santa is “stuck” we still think he’s extra adorable!!!
One last thing my dear friends – this tutorial is geared more towards older kids, so please keep that in mind when making your crafting plans!
Happy crafting, my friends!!! Don’t forget to share pictures of your Santa stuck in the chimney creations, on our Facebook page to admire from a far this season! #gluedtomycrafts
