DIY Starfish Santa Craft

DIY Starfish Santa Craft

Today’s project is one that I’ve been wanting to do for awhile now.  A Starfish Santa Craft!  I know this is a craft that has been done a TON of times, but I really wanted to share it with my followers with an easy to follow tutorial.

I made this Santa craft but it’s totally a craft the kids can make too.  As long as you wait until each paint color dries completely your set!  It’s such a simple Christmas craft you can have done in no time!  I think I’ll need to make a snowman next to go with our Santa craft.

Christmas Starfish Craft Supplies Needed:

  • Starfish
  • Paint
  • Paint Brush

Gather up all your materials for this craft. I have a TON of starfish on hand, I just needed to look for the perfect paint colors.

So let’s get crafting!

Santa-Craft-1

Step 1 – Paint on Santa’s Suit

I found the perfect color of red for my Santa’s suit.  This color covers well so you will only need one coat.  Let dry 20 minutes.

 Step 2 – Paint Fur

Let’s add the white part now.  You need to make sure the red is 100% dry or your white and red will mix and start looking pink-ish.

Step 3 – Paint in Shoes

After your white paint has dried add your Santa’s shoes.

With this Santa craft you can turn it into an ornament, just by glueing some thin ribbon to the top.

I have a special plan I’m doing with this guy that I will be sharing soon.  I’m really excited about it!
