This is how you create the Secret Santa door scene:
Step 1: Painting the Secret Santa door
To make your Secret Santa door shine in the best light, start by painting the door and accessories such as a signpost and the seats of the sledges with the VBS craft paints of your choice. Spread the paint evenly and allow it to dry thoroughly before moving on to the next step.
Step 2: Add details
You can trace the marked areas of the door with the VBS Pearl-Pen. The pearl pen is ideal for adding raised and shiny details to give your door a luxurious touch. Again, allow the colour to dry well so that the details do not smudge.
Step 3: Attach the garlands
Now take the chenille wire and create enchanting garlands. Stick them around the door, windows, fences, ladder and letterbox. The chenille wire is easy to bend and mould into the desired shape. You can use the pearl pen to dab small "baubles" onto the garlands, which look like sparkling jewellery.
Step 4: Decorate the miniature Christmas tree
To make the miniature Christmas tree extra festive, wrap a mini chain of lights around it. Carefully fix the cable to the base of the tree with hot glue to prevent it from slipping. You can then use the pearl pen to add small 'baubles' to reflect the light from the chain and create additional magical effects.
Step 5: Labelling the signposts
To round off your gnome door scene, label the signpost with a marker. Coloured markers are ideal for fine and permanent lettering. Write imaginative directions or witty sayings that will make your visitors smile.
