Winter is the time for Christmas carols. The self-made choir sings a beautiful song and is a cute eye-catcher for your Christmas decoration. With figure cones, miniatures and craft paint, you can easily recreate the pretty choir.

This is how you design the cute choir:
Organ:

Paint the bench with craft paint in grey-brown. When dry, paint the keys and glue on the wooden beads.

Saw 16 round pieces of wood for the organ pipes so that they are always a little shorter. Place them next to each other and glue them crosswise on a wooden stick at the lower edge. To stabilise them, fix another wooden stick to the back. Paint the round sticks with silver-coloured craft paint and the wooden sticks in grey-brown. After drying time, glue the finished organ pipes to the bench from behind.

Figures:

Paint the bodies with your chosen craft paint and decorate with white details. For the singers, glue crochet tape to the bottom edge of the dress. For the choirmaster, create the collar with the ribbon.

Cut approx. 20 cm of paper wire for the arms of each figure, take it double and twist it. Fix this piece in the middle with a dot of hot glue in the "neck" of the figure, then shape it, shorten it if necessary and glue wooden beads for the hands to the ends with craft glue.

For the hair, wrap embroidery twist around two or more fingers (or other objects) depending on the desired hair length. Then tie in the middle with another piece of embroidery floss and cut the loops that were created when wrapping. Roughly pluck into shape, stick on the head and style as desired.

Now you can paint on the faces according to your own imagination.

Cut small sheets from the music paper, fold them and stick them in the singers' hands.

The choir leader gets a baton. Take the tip of a bamboo skewer and paint it with grey-brown craft paint. Stick it in the conductor's hand.
