Since a while I have been collecting corks, every time  a bottle of wine or champagne is finished, I add the corks to a big vase. So now as Christmas is coming is the perfect time to use some of those corks!

This time I will create some Christmas reindeer, they are super easy and fast, here are the instructions.

Materials:

• Red small pom poms
• Small eyes
• Small wooden sticks
• Corks
• Brown pipe cleaners
• Glue
• Scissors

Directions:

Complete reindeer:

1. Cut 4 small wooden sticks into halves.

2. Use the halves to create the feet by inserting them into a cork.

3. Use another half wooden stick to insert it into the top of the cork to create the neck of the reindeer.

4. Add a second cork into the other extreme of the neck to simulate the head of the reindeer.

5. Cute the pipe cleaners into piece of around 7 cm and 5 cm. Place the 5cm piece on top of the 7cm piece as seen on the picture below.

6. Twist the 5 cm pipe into the 5 cm pipe and add it to the head of the reindeer.

7. Finally paste the eyes and the nose on the cork and you are finished.

Reindeer Head:

1. Take a champagne cork, which is bigger and has the top wider than the bottom,as seen below

2.Cute the pipe cleaners into piece of around 7 cm and 5 cm. Place the 5cm piece on top of the 7cm piece as seen on the picture below.

3. Twist the 5 cm pipe into the 5 cm pipe and add it to the head of the reindeer.

4. Finally paste the eyes and the nose on the cork and you are finished.
