How to make a Christmas reindeer with ice cream sticks E 1. Spread some glue on a rectangle of cardboard, and spread it evenly across the surface with a brush. Stick the ice cream sticks next to each other, forming a rectangle. Cut out the excess cardboard.

2. On the brown cardboard, draw and cut out the reindeer's antlers, and a "cloud" shaped piece for the head's coat. On the orange card he draws two ovals, which will be the ears, and on the red one another smaller one to make the nose. Cut out all the pieces. Da 3. Flip the ice cream sticks, and stick the antlers from behind, one in each corner, with a little glue. Ahead put the ears, so that also protrude a little by the sides, and in the center of the face sticks the nose.

4. Throw some glue on the mobile eyes and stick them on the face of the reindeer. With a black marker draw the wedding and make curved lines on the ears, so they are more realistic

5. Turn the reindeer, put a piece of glue on the top, in the center, and put a string of the height they wish to hang the ornament. Let it dry.

6. Your reindeer is ready! You can make several with different expressions, or painting them as you like.
