Here's a place to post patterns you want to share, link to patterns you find elsewhere on the internet, and request particular kinds of patterns you're looking for. I've moved a few existing messages here to get the forum started.

I finally finished my version of Santa. Wow! This one was complex! It took me much longer than any house I've made. I ended up making some homemade "cold porcelain" or no cook clay to make the face and I just kind of formed it by hand. I wish I would have remembered to give it a clear coat. All the rest was basically just like Howard explained in his original post.
Boy! Superglue is some sticky stuff! :lol:

First…exceptional job!…second…I think you sculpted a truly vintage looking Santa face…you’d never know it wasn’t an original face…third…it really brightens my day when I see projects other have made based on things I’ve made!…

PS…your next Santa in the chimney will be much easier!…

Thank you everyone!
Howard- I think I'm going to have to make another one soon because I have two kiddos and they both want a Santa. :)
