Don’t you just love this time of year. The eggnog, the tree, the lights and excitement is something that you can just feel in your soul. It’s just so magical. We got together and made some super fun ornaments for you to make and enjoy with your family. Here’s how you make homemade Rudolph ornaments.
How to make homemade Rudolph Tealight Ornament
Rudolph Ornament Materials:
● Small battery operated tealight
● Brown and red paint
● Paintbrushes
● Ribbon
● Scissors
● Hot glue gun
● Wiggly eyes
● Sparkly gold pipe cleaners
Your how to make homemade Rudolph ornaments Instructions:
1. Begin by painting the flame of your battery operated tealight with red paint. We used
chalk paint because it is fast drying.
2. Once the flame of the tealight has dried, use brown paint to cover the rest of the front
and sides of the tealight. You will not need to paint the back of the tealight.
3. When the paint has dried completely, glue two wiggly eyes to the front of your
painted tealight above the flame.
4. Cut a gold sparkly pipe cleaner in half and form each half into a zigzag type of
reindeer antler shape. You can see the photos for reference.
5. Hot glue the two pipe cleaner antlers to the back of the tealight, one behind each eye
of the reindeer.
6. Cut a small piece of holiday ribbon and tie it into a small bow.
7. Glue the small bow to the bottom front of the tealight reindeer.
8. Cut another small loop of ribbon and hot glue it to the top of the back of the tealight in the middle. This will be the hanger for your ornament.

I LOVE homemade gifts like this especially from kids. I wish more parents would realize many Aunts and Grandparents love this stuff. I have ornaments from nices and nephews from when they were very small as one sister in law is crafty and has the kids do them. Now some of the kids are adults and they get a kick out of seeing their things still used.
