Craft #2: Rudolph Reindeer Ornament
I remember making these as a child. It is so much fun...and a great craft to share with children. It's really easy!
Supplies:
1. Clothespins
2. Brown paint
3. Red gem or pom pom for nose
4. Ribbon
5. Wiggly eyes
Haha, this was the only pack of clothespins I saw at Walmart. It was about $4...quantity is 100, so I guess this means I'm making 50 Rudolphs!
First, I painted my clothespins. I just used some brown acrylic paint. I tried to find some brown spray paint so I could spray a lot of them quickly, but Walmart had none that satisfied me and I didn't feel like making multiple stops :/ Either method works just fine.
This picture shows a couple finished reindeer and some of my supplies.
Second, I tied some tiny bows out of my red ribbon.
Third, I glued my clothespins together with my hot glue gun. One pin facing upwards and the other down.
Fourth, I glued on my eyes, nose and bow.
Voile! That's all you do :) I think they are so cute!! ENJOY!
