Father Christmas
Father Christmas was made at a workshop held by Diane Yunnie.
He is dressed in cream silk with fur trim jacket, trousers and hat. His hat is decorated with a little holly sprig with gold berries. The boots are painted with a bronze coloured nail polish.
I did intend him to have a coat made of cream brocade, but the fabric refused to drape properly. When I sprayed it with hairspray to hold the folds - the fabric turned bright neon yellow!
Father Christmas is standing in front of a Christmas shop front box I made several years ago. He is holding a doll made by Diane, and on the floor is a Fimo rocking horse given to me by a friend; and a wicker doll's push chair made in another workshop with Diane.
I still intend to make him an assistant pixie and a sack full of gifts.
