A & W Reindeer Ornament

So here is my new blog for keeping track of crafts that I create.  For some reason a blog is needed to have more than a single photo on Pinterest.  So here is my first blogged craft:

A & W Reindeer Ornament
Supplies:
Small A & W plastic soda bottle
Scissors or knife
Brown, White (or gray or silver) and Black acrylic paint
Red Christmas Tree Light
Glue Gun and Glue
Braided Yarn (Christmas)
Mints


Directions:

1.  Using the scissors or knife, Cut off bottom of bottle (there is a collar like mark that separates the bottom part from the rest of the bottle - cut there - keep the left over piece for the penguin ornament that you can find on pinterest).

3.  Turn the bottle upside down.  Then face it so that the A & W logo that is imprinted is on the sides (holding that with thumb and middle finger). Cut out a 1 inch piece down to neck collar on front and back. (see photo)

3.  Now on that part that is left of both sides, cut 5 chevron cuts on each side of what is left (see picture). Then should be about 3/8 inches wide and deep enough to leave a center on the antler) And then cut out every other one. 

That is now your main reindeer.

4.  Paint the antlers - gray, silver or white, paint the reindeer head brown.  Paint the eyes black. 

5.  Glue a red Christmas light in the nose. Glue on yarn rope around nose and around top of head to make the hanger. 

6.  Bend out the antlers an fill with candy!

I think you could make this even cuter with some thought.
