Brush on background coat of white acrylic paint. Let dry. With burnt sienna acrylic paint, paint nose. Dip small piece of dry sponge into red acrylic paint, dab onto cheeks. With white craft glue, glue on two 12 mm diameter black buttons for eyes. With awl, make a series of small holes, approx 13 mm (1/2 in) apart, forming smile line; glue whole cloves into holes.
