Dear Santa

-

● Santa Cactus is coming to town! With a nod to the jolly old fellow himself, this kid-friendly project is all in good fun. We began by lighting the tree with about 35 feet of warm white batteryope­rated fairy lights that are wired and bend easily. We looped them around the cactus “spikes” to secure them. Next we glued on large, googly eyes and added a glittery pompom nose. A garland of mini ornaments and a classic Santa hat finish the look. For the base, we wrapped a gift box and filled it like a gift bag with white tissue paper.
