Reindeer Candy Cane

I needed an quick craft for our December Girl Scout meeting of Daisies. Here is what I came up with.

This is a free SVG cut file for die cut machines from SVGcuts.com which can be downloaded here. To save time with our 6 year olds, I pre-cut the paper pieces on my Silhouette.  If these were older girls with better scissors skills, we would have done a similar craft where they cut the paper out themselves.

The above picture shows you everything you need except the bottle of glue.  A glue stick is not strong enough.

The only real trick to this project is to make sure you do not glue between the two cut slits in the dark brown paper. The candy cane slides through these slits so do not put any glue here.

Glue the face to the brown paper, then glue on the nose and eyes.  You could draw the eyes on too.  We finished ours with a pre-tied wired bow.

 My daughter wanted hers to be a girl so we glued the bow to the ear.

Don't forget to follow me on Facebook and Pinterest. Happy crafting!
