Firmoo has a wide selection of round or oval gold wire rimmed glasses for the traditional Santa look. Available with your prescription or clear lenses without a prescription.

Many successful Santas with near distance correction choose bifocals for the authentic old school look. Also available in progressive prescriptions. 

Hat Embellishment:
You can get a small pin with holly leaves and berries or a poinsettia for the fur on your hat. It’s a great way to add colour and interest, and is a nice detail that makes you unique!

You can source the parts at Michael’s or even a dollar store and combine them using a glue gun. Be sure to keep it small in size – you don’t want it to take the focus off Santa’s face!
