2 The head: cover a polystyrene ball with Silk Clay. Attach Silk Clay ears, nose, eyes and mouth.
3 Attach the head onto the body with a blob of Foam Clay. Leave to dry.
4 The arms: cut a piece of pipe cleaner and model Silk Clay hands around each end. Attach the arms onto the back with a blob of Foam Clay.
5 The elf's hat and hair: Cut flax twine strands and place them on top of the head. Model an elf's hat from Foam Clay and press it over the hair and head. You may need to add extra Foam Clay for the hat.
