About This Santa Claus Pearl Design
The Santa Claus motif is a full Santa portrait with a layered beard, structured hat and fur trim, framed in a decorative border, the colouring is cherry red, snow white and antique gold on a warm neutral ground, and the overall bearing is warm and traditional. Santa is the single most recognisable figure in holiday decor — the design does not need to explain itself. It fits a space where the display surface is already waiting. Designed for December hosting and holiday gifting, it holds up as decor rather than as something you finish and put in a drawer. Reference GH013-2. santa is the single most recognisable figure in holiday decor — the design does not need to explain itself It is a small thing, and it is the reason the design holds together.
santa is the single most recognisable figure in holiday decor — the design does not need to explain itself. It is why the piece settles into December hosting and holiday gifting without needing the rest of the scheme to match it.
This is a DOTZSO pearl kit for anyone who wants a soft, textured finish rather than hard sparkle. The kit includes the printed canvas, special-shaped pearl drills, a display frame, a sorting tray, a comfort-grip applicator pen, a wax caddy and pictorial steps.
A piece stays on display if there is nothing left to buy. That is what shipping the frame with the kit is for.
The pearl accents are worked where the design needs relief, with the printed canvas filling everything else.

- Match the first symbol to its pearl drill colour using the printed key.
- Load the pen from the wax caddy and lift the first pearl drill onto the tip.
- Seat the pearl on its symbol, noting that the special shapes sit in a specific direction. Work the focal areas before the surrounding detail.

- Fit the canvas into the display frame and set it on the stand once the pearls are seated.
Give the pearl work the attention it asks for, then frame it and let the softer finish set the tone.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the pearl kit with frame include the accessories too?
Yes. The Santa Claus pearl kit with frame ships complete with the display frame and stand shown in the product images, so the piece can go up as soon as it is finished, plus the DOTZSO resin drills, tray, applicator pen, wax caddy and pictorial instructions. Nothing else needs sourcing. Reference GH013-2.
How well does the Santa Claus design survive handling?
Once the drills are seated and the surface is sealed, the Santa Claus design holds under normal use. This is a display piece rather than a serving surface, and the sealing step is the single biggest factor in how long the finish lasts. The Santa Claus finish is designed to be used, not just looked at.
Does the Santa Claus finish need any special treatment?
Keep it out of direct sunlight and dust it with a dry, soft brush — the adhesive layer under the drills is not built for a soak. For the Santa Claus palette, cherry red, snow white and antique gold on a warm neutral ground tones show dust less than pale grounds, so a light pass is usually enough. Store it dry and the Santa Claus piece needs very little attention.
Is the Santa Claus pearl kit with frame worked right to the edges?
This is a partial-drill design: special-shaped pearl drills sit on the focal areas while the printed artwork remains visible underneath. The Santa Claus artwork is drawn so that a full Santa portrait with a layered beard reads clearly at any distance. The Santa Claus piece reads as complete once the drilling is done.
How much time does the Santa Claus design demand?
Plan for several sessions; the special-shaped drills need slightly more attention than round ones. The Santa Claus design is warm and traditional, which tends to make it easier to work in short sessions. The Santa Claus pattern builds up quickly once the colour blocks start.
Is the Santa Claus pearl kit with frame straightforward for a newcomer?
Yes. The symbol key is printed directly on the canvas and the pictorial instructions walk through the whole process, so no prior diamond painting experience is needed. The Santa Claus layout is warm and traditional, which helps on a first attempt. There is nothing missing from the box.

This was my first pearl kit and the look is completely different from regular drills. The pearl finish makes it look much more expensive than it was. A couple of the darker shades were hard to tell apart in low light. Worth buying, just plan for those small quirks.
Savannah W. (verified owner) –
This was my first time trying pearl art and I’m converted. Beads were all accounted for with a few extra in each color. There were extra drills left over in every color when I finished. The Christmas detail comes together really nicely once it’s finished. I did this with my husband on the weekends and we both got into it. It’s hanging in my craft room now and looks great. Very happy with this purchase.
Evelyn D. (verified owner) –
I’m a repeat DOTZSO customer at this point and this kit did not disappoint. Pearl beads are larger, so much easier on my hands than tiny drills. I like having something mindful to do that doesn’t need a screen. Made this as an anniversary gift and it was well received. Perfect for a cozy evening project.
James J. (verified owner) –
Honestly better quality than I expected for the price. It fits our decor perfectly, very soft and elegant. The holiday pattern is what drew me in and it didn’t disappoint. Easy recommendation.
Ann K. (verified owner) –
The pearl beads are bigger and easier for me to handle than tiny drills. The adhesive is plenty sticky, the drills stay exactly where I put them. It looks beautiful above the sideboard. Will be back for more.
Danielle N. (verified owner) –
Really nice kit, especially for the money. The beads have a nice weight, they don’t feel like cheap plastic. Perfect for winding down before bed, much better than watching another show. The symbols are quite small in the detailed areas. Good kit overall, just a couple of small things.
Rafael H. (verified owner) –
This was my first pearl kit and the look is completely different from regular drills. The pen and wax worked fine, I didn’t need to dig out my own tools. Finish is even and the whole thing looks tidy once you’re done. The repetitive motion is oddly satisfying, one of those simple pleasures. My friends all want one now. I’ll be ordering more.
Theo Brennan (verified owner) –
A friend wouldn’t stop talking about hers, so I finally ordered one. I gave it to my mother for her birthday and she loved it. Solid kit, would order again.

Amelia P. (verified owner) –
Such a nice little project to have on the go. Beads were all accounted for with a few extra in each color. I picked the Christmas version and the colors are lovely. It’s a lovely quiet hobby, and I like having something to show for it at the end. Worth every penny.
Christie Cassidy (verified owner) –
The pearl finish is what sold me and it looks even better in person. The pearl beads have a lovely soft glow rather than a hard sparkle. The festive artwork is the reason I clicked. The chart was large enough to read without squinting. I worked through it over several quiet evenings. It looks sophisticated without trying hard. It would help to include a larger paper chart. Would recommend it with those notes.
Charlotte Hatfield (verified owner) –
Made this as an anniversary gift and it was perfect. I’ve had three people ask me where I bought it. The symbols are quite small in the detailed areas. Would buy again; the notes are minor.
Blake Turner (verified owner) –
I did this one slowly and really enjoyed the process. Pearl surface is glossy and looks lovely in daylight. The tray held more than enough drills at a time. It became my end-of-day wind-down. Made this as an anniversary gift and it was well received. Two thumbs up from me.
Rachel Ashley (verified owner) –
The pearl texture makes it look far pricier than it was. The canvas rolls flat after a night under a couple of books. The colors are true to the listing photos. The holiday artwork comes together beautifully as you work. A really enjoyable way to pass a rainy afternoon. The frame makes it easy to hang right away. A solid pick.
ThreeKidsAndCrafts (verified owner) –
I ordered this pearl set for our anniversary and it was a hit. The pearl surface catches light gently, not harshly. Symbol letters are small but legible, and the legend helped a lot. It’s satisfying to watch a section fill in. The frame makes it easy to hang right away. Two thumbs up.
Aimee Boyd (verified owner) –

This came with a frame which saved me a step. The pearl beads are uniform in size and shape. It looks sophisticated without trying hard. Loved it, no regrets.

The pearl dots give this a completely different feel from standard kits. The fabric is pleasant to work on and doesn’t fray at the edges. I picked it up whenever I had a spare twenty minutes. Exactly what I wanted.
PapaCraftsToo (verified owner) –
Picked this up as a small reward after a long quarter at work. It\’s the most grown-up thing I\’ve made. I had to press the canvas under books overnight before starting. I\’d order again, just knowing what to expect.
Sierra G. (verified owner) –
I did this one with my grandmother and she managed the beads easily. Finished piece looks even better in person than in the listing photos. The sorting tray is shallow, drills spill out if you’re not careful. Would order again despite the small issues.
Mark W. (verified owner) –
Looks much more expensive once it’s done and hung up. Beads are uniform in size, which makes the rows line up neatly. There were extra drills left over in every color when I finished. I’ve been doing it in the evenings with my partner, we take turns on sections. Would make a really nice gift, and it arrives boxed nicely. Thumbs up from our whole family.
Terry Alexander –
This is my favorite finish of all the kits I’ve done. Finish is even and the whole thing looks tidy once you’re done. It looks expensive and understated at once. Glad I finally ordered it.
Austin L. (verified owner) –
Really happy with how this turned out on our wall. Would make a really nice gift, and it arrives boxed nicely. Pearl beads are bigger, so the lines take some getting used to. Happy enough that I’d buy another.
Joel Mayo (verified owner) –
Ordered two kits, this was the one I finished first. A few extra beads were included in each color. Really calming, repetitive work, and satisfying when a section is finished. I’ve already had several people ask where it came from. Highly recommend.

I bought this to have something to look forward to after work. The finish looks consistent from every angle. The work never felt like a chore. Pearl beads are bigger, so the lines take some getting used to. Once it was framed it really pulled the room together. Happy with it, with one small caveat.

Ordered two so my sister and I could work on them side by side. Beads are uniform in size so the rows line up neatly. Nice to have something that gets me off my phone for a while. The Christmas motif is what drew me in. It fits the room without shouting for attention. No complaints at all.
Clint Oneill (verified owner) –
Bought this because I wanted something that wasn’t all high shine. The chart on the side of the canvas is clear and easy to follow. This one might be my favorite finish yet. Very pleased overall.
QuietCraftClub –
I love that it came with a frame – no extra framing cost. The frame went together easily and holds everything tight. The frame is basic, though it does the job. The repetitive motion is oddly satisfying, one of those simple pleasures. It photographs well, which is a bonus for sharing. Happy with it, with a few caveats.

Came across this while looking for craft ideas and bought it that day. Symbols on the chart are printed clearly enough to follow without guessing. The finish is even across the whole piece. Nice mindful project – you can’t think about much else while you’re placing drills. My daughter wants one now after seeing mine. The festive motif makes it feel special. Exactly what I wanted.
