Luminous Table Decorations

Everything here is done with drawing and construction paper, so that the little ones can participate as well.

Materials:

  • Construction paper in white, yellow, light red, dark red, pink, light brown, brown, black
  • Rainbow transparent paper
  • Transparent paper
  • Pencil
  • Fine black marker
  • Opaque white
  • Scissors
  • Cutter
  • Glue
  • Paste


  1. Copy the various motives with the help of the transparent paper from the templates onto the appropriately colored construction paper.
  2. Glue both walls of the house together sideways, fixating the black window wall next to the right roof window. Attach the transparent paper to the backside of the house, fixating the snow on the roof and the floor.
  3. Glue the chimney walls with the snow to the lower part of the Santa Claus body, arranging the face with the glued-on beard, moustache and nose on top. Affix the hands, the goody bag, the seams for the cap and sleeves, the bobble as well as the yellow button.
  4. Using the fine black marker, draw the dividing lines for the cap and sleeves, mouth and eyes. Paint light reflections into the eyes with the opaque white.
  5. Glue the Santa Claus securely to the roof, placing the bag in front of the seam of the sleeve, but also behind the snow on the roof.
  6. Cut out two construction paper strips (15 cm long, 2 cm wide), fastening them sideways to the backside of the house. Finish it off by placing a luminescent screen in front of a tea light.
