By this time last year I had shown y'all about 12 different Santas and this year - not even one!
Well something had to be done to correct that.
So...since this year has been the year for Rear View Characters....
I give you....
Santa - Buns of Steel
But before he did his workout tapes he was Santa - Buns of Blubber.
Hee hee - we had great fun as a family arguing the superiority of the two versions. There was a third version that hubby said looked like he was wearing a diaper. And while that does happen to some men as old as Santa, I won't show it out of my deep respect for the Magical Man of Christmas.
Head - 1 inch circle
Hair - scallop oval repunched
Shirt - 1.75 circle
Suspenders - word window
Buns - 3/4 or 1 inch circles
Thigh and Upper Arms - small oval
Calves - word window
Boots - modern label and 3/4 circle
Here is the pictorial "how to"

If I had have been drinking a cup of tea whilst reading this, I would have sprayed it across my monitor! "Sprayed Tea Splutter of Laughter" = STSOL - hehehe! I think the Inspiration Fairy found you again Ellen!
Is he resting after a hard night's work? Looks great and I'm glad you're back.

One never knows when one will need a "buns of Steel" santa...so glad to have him in my collection.
The "buns of Blubber" probably came from the "ho ho's"
