These diy reindeer ornaments are so cute! Make them for your tree, to give as a gift or to top a gift! If you use plastic ornaments use the ribbon and a piece of tape to attach to a Christmas gift in place of a bow.
• Cover your flat work surface with newspaper or cardboard.
• Remove the ornament cap; set aside.
• Mix together 1 tablespoon of brown paint with ½ teaspoon of silver glitter on a small easel (or paper plate).
• Paint the exterior of your ornament completely with the shiny brown paint. (You may want to do this where you paint most of the ornament, then place it on a plastic cup to dry. After it is dry, turn it over and paint the bottom.)
• Allow to dry completely.
• Once your ornament is dry, place the ornament cap back on your ornament ball.
• Paint two white oval shaped eyes on the front of your ornament along with 2 small half circle lines connected underneath.
• Allow to dry.
• Paint one large black dot inside each white eye (make them even).
• Allow to dry.
• Hot glue the red sparkly pom pom underneath the eyes for Rudolph’s red nose.
• Fold two pipe cleaners in half, bend each one to look like antlers, and hot glue the bottoms onto the back top of your ornament.
• Cut a 8″ piece of silver ribbon (or any color you please), place one end through the top loop, and tie the ends into a knot to hang.
• Hang as desired.
