Candy Cane Reindeer Craft

Looking for a fun and easy Christmas craft idea for your kids? This candy cane reindeer is perfect! Keep reading to learn how to make this adorable holiday decoration. Your kids will love getting creative with this fun candy cane ornament project!

Craft Supplies:

  • Free Candy Cane Template Printable
  • White Cardstock Paper
  • Color Printer
  • Crayons, Markers or Coloring Pencils
  • Scissors
  • Single Hole Punch
  • Brown Pipe Cleaners
  • Large Googly Eyes
  • School Glue

Directions:

  • First grab and print outthe FREE CANDY CANE PRINTABLE. ONE print gives you TWO opportunities to do this reindeer craft.
  • Next go ahead and color in the two candy cane designs on the paper. I HIGHLY suggest making the tip of the candy cane red {for the reindeer nose} and building from there.
  • When done coloring, it’s time to cut them out and discard the excess paper.
  • We are heading towards the last few steps. Grab your TWO brown pipe cleaners and hole punch.
  • Punch a hole in the top of your decorated paper candy canes.
  • Thread the pipe cleaners through the hole, so you can twist and tie it for the reindeer antlers.
  • The final step is gluing on the wiggle eyes so they can see and guide Santa’s sleighs on the big night!
  • At this point in time you can add any other embellishments you see fit.
  • Then when you are ready, carefully lay the pipe cleaner antlers on a tree branch, so the reindeer hangs nicely.
