Dollar Store Craft: Reindeer Wall Art

I always enjoy creating crafts from dollar store items. It’s always fun to use several items and create a decor piece that fits in with my other decor. This Reindeer Wall Art is clicks all those boxes

The first thing I spotted that had potential was the white reindeer head ornament. They are made to mimic a mounted head, so it was easy to envision having a few of them mounted for some holiday wall art. I stopped by the frame section of the store and found just what I needed. I also purchased some shimmery tissue paper and ribbon. The total purchase price was $6.00.

I removed the cardboard filler from the frame and wrapped the tissue paper over it the way I would wrap a present.

I love the glitter on the reindeer, but I didn’t care for the greenery around the neck. It pulled off easily using jewelry pliers. I replaced the greenery with red ribbon. It’s hot glued in place. I added a snowflake sticker that I had in my craft stash to each ribbon. I used a tiny dot of hot glue for those, too. Whenever several reindeer get together, one of them is bound to be Rudolph! So, the center reindeer was given a shiny, glittery red nose. The dot is a punctuation period from some adhesive letters I have

After placing the cardboard wrapped piece back into the frame, the reindeer were hot glued to the glass. I used glittery adhesive letters to add Merry Christmas.

I also added tiny red snowflake stickers to the larger snowflakes and a couple of snowflakes to the frame.

I hot glued a red ribbon to the back of the frame and made a loop for hanging, then tied another piece of the ribbon to make a bow.

Not only was this dollar store craft inexpensive, it was quick and easy to put together!
