Christmas is my favorite time of the year and it isn't complete without Santa or in this case a Santa Baby. I love all the traditions that come along with that time of the year and if you have a baby that is born around Christmas time a Santa Baby would be so adorable. Whether you use the photo as a keepsake photo or an adorable Christmas card. This set is super simple to work up and with a little creativity you can have an adorable Santa Baby

Pom Pom:
You Need White Yarn and a Tapestry Needle
Take white yarn and wrap it around your hand about 75-150 times (depending upon the fullness you want for the pompom), then tie several tight knot around the center of the loops, leave a long tail to sew onto the top of the hat. Cut all the loops, then trim all the loops until you have the length you would like. Sew the pom pom onto the top of the hat.
