Christmas Tree Decorations (lollypop sticks)

I thought this would be a great start to the Crafty Advent as we’ll be putting out tree up this weekend.

 

What you will need:

For each Reindeer

3 brown/natural lollipop sticks
1 red pompom for the nose (ours is approx 25mm) or a red sticker
2 eye sticker (goggly or flat)
A pipe cleaner for the antlers (Brown/Gold) approx 30cm – cut into 7cm, 7cm, 8cm, 8cm pieces
A piece of twine/string/ribbon to hang it
Natural/Brown Scrap Card (old brown envelope or cardboard box will do) 10cm square
Glue or Double Sided Tape

 

1. Glue the three lollypop sticks togetherinto a triangle
   2. Use the triangle as a guide for tracing a triangle onto the brown paper/card
   3. Cut out the Triangle and glue or tape onto the lollypop sticks
   4. Stick on the eyes and a red pompom/sticker for the nose
   5. Use the two longer lengths of pipe cleaner to wrap around the top lollypop stick
   6. Wrap the shorter pipe cleaner lengths part way up the pipe cleaners you’ve already attached, twisting in the middle.
   7. Glue or tape some ribbon/Twine on the back so it can be hung from the tree
