How Do You Make Clothespin Reindeer Ornaments?
This easy craft can involve the whole family. The reindeer made from clothespins look great on your tree and make wonderful gifts for friends and neighbors. Here’s how to make them. I leave the clothespins natural, but some people like to paint them brown. Glue two clothespins together to form the legs of the reindeer. Glue another clothespin to the legs, but it goes upward to form the reindeer’s head and antlers. Note the proportions in the picture. Drill a hole in the reindeer to thread through the hanger. An adult will need to do this part. The thread for hanging could also be glued between the head and body (then no hole is needed). Glue on the googley eyes. Glue on the red pom-pom nose (or the red bead). Cut out and glue on the felt for a holly leaf accent above the eyes. Glue on some white felt for his tail.
