Reindeer Antlers

Tis the season to wear antlers, fa la la la la, la la, la la or something like that!



 

A few years back, I made some of my charges some reindeer antlers. I think they were just for playing around in but word got around and suddenly I was the go-to guy for bespoke reindeer antlers! 






They're pretty easy to make and you don't really need any specialist equipment. I usually buy a pack of Alice bands from Poundland to get me started.






You can create the shape with either tinfoil or pipe cleaners. You could also use twigs/sticks if you're feeling rather adventurous!





When you're done layering them up, you can either spray paint them in festive metallics or paint them with acrylic paint. 





Did someone say rain, dear?






Check out the YouTube video for a quick demo on how to make these wonderful antlers:
