Did you know that a lot of creative ways can be done with needle felt wool? You've probably seen some nice things coming by on Yoors lately. Now that it's almost Christmas, of course, a Christmas figure should not be missed!
Because of my wool allergy unfortunately a no go, but forIneke van der LindeFortunately, no problem. This time she made Rudolf the reindeer on a body of a large pine cone!
Materials used:needle felt wool and a loose felt sheet of Meaningful Crafts , Creall Coll glue, and natural materials etc.
Ineke tells her roadmap:
1. I made a small preform first.
2. Then a piece of wool slightly glued to the pine cone.
3. On this I continued to form.
Earphones made separately. Leave a tuft of wool on it. With this tuft of needle felt you can put it at the base.
5. For the nose I used a small bead of a Christmas garland. Before the eyes a few button pins.
6.For the mouth I used a very thin tuft of wool, so that you only need a line of needle felt.
7.For the antlers I used 2 sprigs of the alder props and simply pricked in the basic form with a dowel of glue
8. On the points of the pine cone I dripped some glue and sprinkled some sparkles. I put this in a plastic container so you don't have everything under the glitter and you can catch the surplus again. This can of course also be done with a sheet of paper.
9. From a piece of felt I cut a bar in full length. In this I cut some fraying at both ends. This will be the scarf.

10. A pair of thicker twigs and brown wooden beads form the arms.
11. A piece of sisal rope, dark brown beads and dried beech nut caps form the legs and feet
You can put Rudolph somewhere and leave his legs dangling or she puts him on a tree disc with reindeer moss and smaller pine cones.
Nice gift for yourself if you are also a fan of Rudolf you will find here.
