I decided I wanted to include some guest posters this December on my blog. I'm blessed to have some very crafty friends. This is the first of several posting you'll see this month from my good friend, Anne. She's been a slacker on her own blog lately, but she was nice enough to do Christmas postings for me and I SO appreciate it! These reindeer of hers are super adorable!
Every time we go buy paint the guy behind the counter gives us at least 2 stir sticks for it, and usually, we buy the paint the day we are going to use it and it has just been stirred anyway… the result is a large pile of extra sticks. Add a bit of paint, some garland, ribbon and pipe cleaners… and poof, Reindeer!
We painted the sticks with acrylic paints, just the cheap dollar bottle stuff. We used paint pens for the faces and wooden balls for the noses.
Everything was held together with hot glue.
Stop by and visit Anne at Confessions and Scrap!
