Lightbulb Santa

What You'll Need: standard light bulbs; red ribbon; acrylic craft paint in assorted colors

Step 1: Glue ribbon around the metal base of a standard lightbulb to form a loop for hanging.

Step 2: Paint a white basecoat around the glass bulb, and let dry. With the bulb positioned downward, paint a Santa face. Give him a white beard and a bright red hat. When finished, hang the bulb in a safe place to dry.
