Process wooden discs into Advent elves

First, the work surface is carefully covered so that no paint or glue residue can be found on the table afterwards. All the necessary ingredients are laid out.

  1. Figures can be made out of wooden discs. A large disc forms the body or the belly. A second, slightly smaller disk is now glued to this with hot glue, edge to edge. Now an "eight" is out wood developed. Now the feet are glued to the lower edge of the larger disk made of two small disks. A nose is glued in the middle of a small disk into the upper disk.
  2. The ears are glued to the upper pane above the edge of two small or medium-sized discs. If you still want, you can attach two wooden discs to the side as arms.
  3. So that the figure can stand on its own, a suitable size disk is now attached to the back with the adhesive as a stand.
  4. Now the time has come: the figure can be painted. The basic color red is usually used for a Christmas elf, but of course any other desired color can be used here. The nose is painted red, a painted Christmas coat with a button placket is placed on the stomach and hands. The legs can be painted into black boots and of course the eyes with bushy white eyebrows are missing on the face, which are now painted on with paint. The foil pen can be used for subtleties such as eyelashes or pupils.

  5. At the very end, a piece of fabric that matches the head can be cut out of the piece of fabric and stuck on above the head as a hat. Alternatively, cotton wool can be glued on, so instead of the hat there is white hair.

  • If you don't want to make an elf, you can simply paint large wooden discs with winter motifs. Snow landscapes, snowmen or even fir trees can be painted on here - just as you like.
  • If you prefer to paint than glue, you can use smaller wooden disks for Handcraft also paint pretty Christmas tree pendants or door decorations. These are then provided with ribbon for hanging with the help of glue and can decorate the whole apartment. A little glitter sprinkled on the still wet paint and it already shines like Christmas.
