How To Make These Cute Rudolf Ornaments
To create these adorable Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer ornaments, start by placing your wooden slices on your surface.
Paint one side of the wooden slice brown using your brown paint and paintbrush. Allow the piece to fully dry.
Whilst the wooden slices are drying, draw and cut out two sets of antlers for each reindeer ornament. Then cut out a large red nose for each Rudolf.
Using your glue gun, glue the brown glitter antlers to the back (unpainted) side of your wooden slices. Glue the red nose onto the bottom half of the wooden slice.
Next, draw two eyes with your black marker pen. Draw a line under Rudolf’s nose to add a mouth!
The final part of the process is to thread a piece of string through the hole on your wooden slice.
Your Rudolf craft is now ready to hang on the Christmas tree or in another location in the home.
These are super fun and easy Christmas decorations and I’m sure the kids will have plenty of fun making these in preschool or at home.

Where do you get the antlers from?
You make the antlers from the glitter paper.
How do you drill a hole in the wooden slices? Do you need a special drill from a craft store to do that? I noticed that the wood slices that are linked don’t have holes in them already.
These ornaments are very cute, by the way 🙂
I actually bought ones with holes in already. Here is a link to wooden slices with holes! https://amzn.to/2OZa3Vv
Thanks so much!
These are adorable. Where can you find a template for the antlers? I am not good at drawing something freestyle. Also, where do you get the glitter paper?
Thanks!
