How to do it

1
Shape the bonsai wire into a triangle with two feet as shown in this picture. It's easy to shape the bonsai wire and to cut it with an ordinary pair of scissors.

2
Soak the gauze bandage in water and let the excess drip off. Wrap it around the triangular shape. Do not cover the legs with gauze bandage.

3
Paint the hardened gauze bandage shape with Plus Color craft paint.

4
Attach the pom-poms with Sticky Base; attach a small blob of Sticky Base onto the figure and then place a pom-pom onto the Sticky Base. The small white pom-poms are used for the beard. Use the large pom-pom for the nose and for the top of Father Christmas's hat.

5
Finish by attaching the googly eyes with Sticky Base using the same technique as for the pom-poms.
