The key to a great Christmas photo is Santa. John Legend is less necessary, so long as you have a few craft supplies.

Chrissy Teigen, for example, took her and Legend's baby Luna to snap a family pic with Santa Claus on Wednesday. Legend, however, was away in Paris, so Teigen improvised by making a mask of her husband's face and having another person pretend to be him.

Talk about a holiday hack!

And Twitter, with its legion of ardent Teigen fans, loved it.

We are less sure about John Legend himself, who merely replied, "savage."

Want to make your own John Legend mask? Looks like you'll need a small stick, a photo of John Legend's head and some kind of adhesive. Easy enough. Happy crafting, and please try not to scare Santa.
