I wanted ornaments to match these Santa face plates
that I got a while ago from HomeGoods
They are a knock off of “Old St. Nick” plates by Vietri
which sell for $64 a piece
My plates were way more budget friendly at under $8
Vietri has “Old St. Nick” ornaments too, they are $34 each!
My ornaments cost less than $1,
which means you don’t have to cry if you break one 🙂
I started with the face
If you look at the plate,
the part of Santa’s face that is showing
is kinda of a wonky rectangular shape
Next came the brim of his hat
I left a little space on each side so I could add his hair
Then long fat, slightly curved strokes for his beard
Two strokes for his mustache
Dots with the tip of a brush handle for his eyes
A larger red dot for his mouth
A pom pom for the tip of his hat and stripes on the brim
A glass makes a handy stand for the paint to dry
Old St. Nick!
Have some holiday painting fun and
Be Fearless!
