Using chenille pipe cleaners—a soft, flexible craft material—was a way to soften Krampus’s scary image while maintaining his iconic features, such as horns, claws, and a long tongue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"512\" data-end=\"922\"\u003eThese figures typically stand just a few inches tall and are intricately twisted and shaped by hand. The pipe cleaners provide a perfect medium for adding texture to fur, creating bendable limbs, to which molded heads are added.
