Make A Cute Reindeer Bottle

This is an idea for an last minute Hostess Gift. Grab a six pack of soda, beer, root beer or whatever you want to take to the party.


Everyone will get a chuckle when they see your Reindeer all gathered around waiting for the Party to start!

Materials To Make The Reindeer Bottles

Materials You Need To Make The Reindeer

From the Craft Store:

Purchase a small amount of red felt

Purchase a small amount of white felt

Package of Brown Pipe Cleaners

Elmer's Glue

Package of eyes that roll around

Scissors to cut the felt

Six Packs of Drinks (your choice)






















Assemble Your Reindeer

Cut out the white and red felt for the eyes. Glue into position using my photo as a guide.

Glue on the eyes. Wrap the brown pipe cleaner round the neck of the bottle to make the antlers.

What a wonderful idea! I never thought about doing that and I have a family of beer drinkers..:) Glad to meet you on hub pages. We are neighbors.. I live in Hickory, NC. I lived in SC for 15 years.. In the "armpit" in Marlboro County (by Florence). It is a new world here in the foot hills of NC. Asheville is one of the most beautiful places in the USA. I like Blowing Rock too but the road to get there has no guard rails.. lol. It is a pleasure to meet you and I can't wait to read more of your creative work!

Hi, tammyswallow, good to meet you too! I love NC, but it just gets too cold for me in the Winter. I agree, Asheville is a beautiful town. I'm so happy to be following you. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas.

Hi there drbj! Good to see you today. That means you survived Christmas! Thanks for reading about how to turn bottles into Reindeer. Hmmmmm, we could try to reverse the procedure and make reindeer, I suppose. You are TOO funny. Hope you have a Happy New Year, too, friend.
