Directions To Make Reindeer Clothespin Christmas Treat Bags

Step 1

Once you’ve gathered your craft supplies, start by painting the clothespins brown. 

Step 2

Squirt some glue on the front of the clothespin. If I were making these alone, I would just whip out my hot glue gun, because well, hot glue guns make most Christmas crafts easier.

But to avoid the whines from my 3 year old as I tried to put the hot glue on “her” reindeer, I did let her goop some school glue on the clothespin herself.

Step 3

Then she stuck the pom pom nose on the tip. The pom poms can be tricky to work with when using craft glue because the glue sort of absorbs into the pom pom.

But if you are patient and can hold it in place for a while it will eventually stick on.

Or if you are sneaky like me, just put a drop of hot glue on it when the little one isn’t looking to be sure that it stays on.

Step 4

Add the two googly eyes behind the pom pom nose. These will stick great with craft glue.

Step 5

Clip the pipe cleaner  in the clothespin. Pull the ends of the pipe cleaners up and twist. Then do some curly bends on the ends to make them look like antlers.

Step 6

Use the paint pen to add a child’s name to the clothespin. Then clip the reindeer to the treat bag.

Materials

  • Clothespins 
  • Paintbrush
  • Brown craft paint
  • Googly eyes
  • Small red pom pom
  • Paint pen in silver or white
  • Brown pipe cleaner
  • Hot glue gun or use a craft glue if kids will be making it
  • A super yummy snack in a small bag - I used red and green M&Ms

Instructions

  1. Start by painting the clothespins brown. This is easy and neatness isn't too critical which makes it a great project for even young children to do.
  2. Squirt some glue on the front of the clothespin. If I were making these alone, I would just whip out my hot glue gun because I think everything sticks better with hot glue and it certainly dries quickly. But to avoid the whines from my 3 year old as I tried to put the hot glue on "her" reindeer, I did let her goop some school glue on the clothespin herself.
  3. Then she stuck the pom pom nose on the tip. The pom poms can be tricky to work with when using craft glue because the glue sort of absorbs into the pom pom. But if you are patient and can hold it in place for a while it will eventually stick on....or if you are sneaky like me, just put a drop of hot glue on it when the little one isn't looking to be sure that it stays on.
  4. Add the two googly eyes behind the pom pom nose. These will stick great with craft glue.
  5. Clip the pipe cleaner in the clothespin. Pull the ends of the pipe cleaners up and twist. Then do some curly bends on the ends to make them look like antlers.
  6. Use the paint pen to add a child's name to the clothespin and clip the reindeer to the treat bag.

  1. So cute! I’ve done these as butterfies. I would have never thought to make reindeer!

  2. Jill, I haven’t seen holiday colors in the mini M&Ms, just the regular size. I let my daughter help pick out the red and green ones from a regular mini M&M bag…..but that got old for both of us so we did end up buying a holiday color bag of regular size M&Ms too just to hurry the project along.

  3. I love this idea! Tell me did you find a bag of mini red and green M&M’s or did you pick those colors out of a regular M&M’s bag?

  4. Love it! I may have to make these for my preschoolers for our Christmas party from me – with the help of my own kids, of course. I wouldn’t want to deprive them of the fun of creating (or me from the extra help!)

  5. Love this idea. I will be doing this for our home learners group Christmas party and book exchange. Thanks for sharing.
