3-D Detail of Santa - The Santa really looks dimensional and is a great effect for this project.
Instructions:
1. To create the heart decoration, follow the directions here > Paper Napkin Applique Tutorial. You need one complete napkin quarter to apply to the wood. Let motif completely dry before continuing.
2. Saw the heart out and paint the edges with a matching color.
3. Select a detail of your napkin you wish to use as the 3-D effect. To create the 3-D motif, follow the steps 1-3 in the directions here > Using Modelling Clay for 3-D Figures.
4. While the clay is still semi-soft, use the blunt side of a knife and press in details carefully to add a more realistic look to the figure. See picture below for technique.
5. Let the clay motif dry overnight. The next day, glue the motif permanently onto the heart.
6. Drill a hole in each top heart half and add twine to hang it up.
While the clay is still semi-soft, use the blunt side of a knife and press in details carefully to add a more realistic look to the figure.
