Reindeer Ornament Craft



Another adorable craft to put up on the tree this year featuring a cute little reindeer face. This one is also great as a window decoration as well as the sun or light comes through the cellophane to create a bit of a sun catcher. 

To create this cute little deer you need:

  • Popsicle sticks
  • Glue
  • Googly eyes
  • Ribbon or string
  • Cellophane or paper
  • Construction paper 
  • Pompoms
Begin by tracing out the little ones hands onto brown construction paper for your antlers.





Glue three popsicle sticks into a triangle.



Cut the cellophane or paper into the triangle shape to fill in the centre.


Add the eyes and nose, we went with red for “Rudolph” but you can use black or any colour really if you like. 


Glue the antlers onto the back side as well as a string or ribbon for hanging. 


That’s it, enjoy your adorable new keepsake reindeer ornament!
