The elf makes Christmas presents

1 Cut the ends of 3 ice lolly sticks to make the bench seat. Cut 4 x 4 cm-long pieces for the legs of the bench. Cut 4 x 3 cm-long pieces to attach the seat and legs together.

2 Glue the parts together as shown in the picture.

3 Cut out the wrapping paper and use a plant support stick or similar to roll the paper.

4 Make ski sticks out of wooden sticks. First, apply some glue to the ends of the wooden sticks and then attach the small wooden beads. Finally, cut off the small tips.

5 Cast on four stitches for the knitted garment and knit a small piece.

6 Shape small figures out of Silk Clay©. For example, make the teddy bear shown in the picture.

7 Assemble the figures. The picture shows a fully assembled teddy bear. Tip: As these parts are very small, the drying time for Silk Clay© is short. Moisten the parts with water if they become too dry to assemble and they will become sticky again.
