| our latest christmas decoration, so sweet! |
day 194 and we are crafting with the peeps for today's creation.
these terracotta pot reindeer are so cute and a great idea for making with the peeps. the idea comes from rhonda at
dollar store crafts and is pinned to my
2011 advent crafts board.
you need some terracotta pots, googly eyes, pompom noses, brown pipe cleaners, a sharpie, ribbon, and a hot glue gun or craft glue. we didn't end up painting them or putting the bells underneath to make them ring because the peeps didn't want to wait for the paint to dry (see, totally buzzed about christmas!)

| what you need :) |
 |
| glue on some eyes and a nose |
 |
| add ribbon for hanging |
 |
finally add a brown pipe cleaner fashioned
into some antlers :) |
 |
| our set of reindeer is growing!! |
outcome: these were lots of fun for the peeps to make and not too taxing which is good for over excited little ones who are madly counting down the days to christmas!
a big thank you to rhonda at
dollar store crafts, what a great website, plenty of inspiration for budget crafting and the terracotta reindeer is just one of the cool ideas they have for christmas :)
Great for the Christmas tree :)

These are soooo cute! Probably a far better use of terra cotta pots for me than actually planting things in them. (the poor plants wouldn't stand a chance!)
