This is one of my Paper Mache Santas that I was creating a few years ago! The date on this one is 1993-and #7...which means this was the 7th. one of this kind of craft santas that I had made.
I think he's quite elegant -if a bit subdued- in his fine creamy white and gold robe!
I got my inspiration for this one from a picture of an antique Russian St. Nick ornament which I found in magazine.
I only made a few of this kind. My Santas, though, were not ornament size but stood 12-14 inches tall. They were all original paper mache-no molds or patterns - so each one was unique.
:) There's not much difference in the natural color and the sepia!

The paper mache Santa must have been lots of work. But the original was worth the effort as it is beautiful The sepia adds a rich light bronze tone to him. A lovely post and gift giver!
