Fun Homemade Gift for the Holidays for Kids


I was looking on line and came across this great craft to do with kids. Isn't it adorable? It is totally doable too! Instructions and Supplies are listed below or follow the link to Amazing Moms. Have fun!
Reindeer Craft Treat Holder

Supplies you will need:
  • Scissors

  • Craft glue, glue sticks or glue dots

  • Terracotta clay pots; 2" - 5"

  • Plastic eyes

  • Red pom-poms

  • 3 shades of brown craft foam, cardstock paper or construction paper

First, with one shade of brown, cut the antlers to match the size of your pot. If you are making the larger reindeer, use a child's handprint as pattern. Then, cut the ears with the other brown. We used a lighter shade of brown to add yet another layer to the ears but that's not necessary.Attach they ears to the back of the pot. Then add the antlers. Glue the eyes and nose the front. Fill the pot with candy, nuts or other goodies. It's that simple!
