This is my latest homemade ornament, which I'm calling a Paddle Spoon Reindeer because "paddle spoon" is the search term that finally worked when I tried to figure out what to call the mini wavy craft stick that makes up the reindeer's face. It's hanging right by my Diamond Dotz Joy ornament. Slowly but surely, the homemade ornaments are crowding out the store-bought ones on the tree (as it should be). Affiliate links below.
Paddle Spoon Reindeer Ornament
Materials:
- paddle spoon (or, as I like to call it, mini wavy craft stick)
- Folk Art brown paint
- craft foam (brown and green)
- microtip scissors
- craft glue
- sparkly red mini pom pom
- googly eyes
- tiny bell
- ribbon
Steps:
Paint the paddle spoon brown and set it aside. Cut the brown craft foam to make a pair of antlers, then cut the green craft foam to make two teeny holly leaves. Cut a length of ribbon to make the hanger.
Glue the antlers behind the paddle spoon, then glue the eyes, pom pom, holly leaves, and bell in place. When those are dry, glue the ribbon hanger to the back.
