Cardboard Moose
Hey Everyone! I've noticed that a lot of people that are putting reindeer on their walls and decorating them for Christmas. So I thought that I would make my own. I was going more for a reindeer, but it turned out to be more like a moose.
First I designed the side of my moose. As you can see it's very angular. Making cardboard curve is hard. I didn't want to make it more tricky then I had to. So I made it be angular.
I actually ended up using this one above as a template and made a couple more that I liked better. Then I took 4 inch pieces of cardboard and started cutting and gluing them onto the two side pieces. Measuring and cutting as I went.
I cut out ears and antlers. Which was trickier because of the curves. Then hot glued them on. Once it was done this is what I got!
I still want to paint it's antlers gold so that it has a little pizzaz. We're getting ready for Christmas, are you?
Have fun!
