As Christmas approaches, we all know that time will be in short supply! If you are looking for a quick, simple craft, give these cute candy cane reindeers are try!
I saw these Reindeer Candy Canes in Scrapbooks Etc. and thought they would be a fun project. I am working on creating a bunch for my son’s class at school. I think that they would also be really cute as present toppers.
Can’t get a whole lot easier than that! I think they look cute so I am off to the store to pick up some more candy canes. Have a great night!

Materials
- candy canes
- brown yarn
- google eyes
- small buttons or pompoms for the nose
- ribbon
- bells
- glue
Directions
- Put two candy canes together and wrap them up with the yarn. I made them a little thicker in the middle for those big reindeer tummies! Tuck the end in when you are finished.
- Tie a ribbon around the “neck” and add a bell.
- Glue on your eyes and nose.

I think your reindeers are fabulous! Can’t wait to try them with my kindergarten class… they might need a bit of help with the trimmings, but definitely worth a try! Thanks for sharing…
