Easy Christmas Craft – DIY Wine Cork Reindeer Ornament

Do you have some wine corks lying around {don’t worry, no judgement if you have enough to make enough ornaments for the entire neighborhood} just waiting to be upcycled into these cute {and EASY} reindeer ornaments?  These cute little ornaments take all of about 2 minutes to throw together, and would be adorable hanging around the neck of a bottle of wine {or sparkling cider} as a Christmas gift.

You’ll Need:

Wine cork
Twine, ribbon, yard {whatever you have on hand}
Googly eyes
Tiny red pom-pom
Brown pipe cleaner
Glue gun

Directions:

Start by attaching a looped piece of twine, ribbon, etc. onto the top of the cork using the glue gun.  Next, wrap the pipe cleaner around the top of the cork and twist it {like a twist tie on a loaf of bread} to get it to stay in place.  Bend the excess to make them look more like antlers.  Next, glue the googly eyes onto the top of the cork, just below the antlers.  Finally, on the end of the cork, glue the small red pom pom for the nose.

Now go pour yourself a Gatorade and recoup from a whole 5 minutes of crafting.
