Step by Step Santa’s Bag Drawing Instructions
Step 1 – Draw the Top Opening
Start with a soft, wavy shape near the top of your page. Think of it like a ruffled edge or a squishy flower — this is the top opening of Santa’s bag.
Step 2 – Add the Inner Rim
Draw another wavy shape right underneath the first. This creates the inside rim of the opening and adds a puffy, layered look.
Step 3 – Tie the Bag
Under the opening, draw an oval to represent the tied part of the bag. Add a small, loose ribbon string curling to the side to make it look gently knotted.
Step 4 – Draw the Bag Body
From beneath the knot, draw two big curving lines downwards, creating a round, stuffed shape that flattens slightly at the bottom. This gives your Santa bag a soft, filled-up appearance.
Step 5 – Add Wrinkles
To make the bag look more realistic, sketch a few gentle curved lines around the body to show folds and soft fabric creases.
Step 6 – Give It a Face!
Want to make it extra cute? Add two small black ovals for eyes and a happy smile in the center. Now your Santa bag is ready to help deliver joy!
