Pop Up Santa

[Growler]

Hi all,

After checking out ebay I saw this really neat Santa that was peeking around the side of the window. Has anyone made a slowly moving Santa that would pop up and go back down for their windows. Kind of like the ones for Halloween tombstones? I might try making one for next year. If you have made one please post a pic.

I don't see any section for a "how too" like on the sister site.

That would be great to see.

Once there are a few how-to posts to the site, we can create a section.

Dave the Dead has written a great tutorial on making a head popper, and includes measurements and lengths. All it needs is a Santa Head. :D

Hopefully we can get some on-site tutorials too! :)

That would be fantastic if people would post their how-to's here, so other's can stea...um...borrow their ideas. :D

Just created a tutorial section: Tutorials and Step-By-Step (From Home Page)

Thanks Larry.

I second that. Thank you! I'm new to the xmas props so I can use all the help I can get. I'm hoping some of the Halloween stuff just slides horizontally over to xmas.
