A Santa Claus bookmark is a good little Christmas gift to give to someone who reads. Children may either print or trace carefully the picture of it here, or if you are a little artist draw it all by yourself, being sure to measure the chimney to get it straight. It would be better to use rather stiff white paper for your bookmark if you have it on hand. After you have drawn the front view fold the paper on the line AB and cut the outline. Now draw on the back (the part that is wrong side up in the picture), unfold, and begin the coloring with watercolor or colored pencil. If you use watercolors, don't brush the paint on too thick or it will look muddy. If you use crayon don't press down on them too hard. It looks ever so much better if it is colored lightly. Santa's hat and coat must be red trimmed with white fur, his mittens white and his beard white. His pack would look well dark green. The chimney could be red or an adobe red in color. If you could do it neatly (it may be difficult) leave the spaces between the bricks white or color these grey. After the bookmark is dry cut along the dotted line, being sure not to cut off poor Santa's head. This is so that his beard will slip over the page and keep the bookmark in place. Now fold over the back on AB, and paste the lower courses of bricks on the chimney head neatly together. Write the name of your friend and your own on the back. Someone will be very pleased with this if you make it carefully and color it well! More Christmas Bookmarks to Print and Color:
