How to make

Step-1

Fold one piece of card in half, lengthwise. Draw 2 large ears and 2 smaller ears on one side. Fold the other piece of card in half, width wise. Draw antlers on one side. Cut out your shapes. Leave fold intact.

Step-2

We used light brown and pink felt. Feel free to embrace your inner-rainbow-loving reindeer and use whatever coloured felt you'd like to. Using your cards as templates, cut out the felt required. Fix in place with a hot melt glue gun.

Step-3

Follow the same process for the antlers. I only covered the front of my headpiece with felt. You can also cover the back pieces with felt, should you so wish.

Step-4

Lay your headband between the pieces of card, along the folds. Once you are happy with the positioning of ears and antlers, glue the felted front to the back piece of card.
