Perfect for Beginners

The parts of the reindeer head are simply layered and glued together. This makes the tutorial especially easy to follow and is therefore perfect for children.

Practical Ideas for Use

• With a Clip: Attach a small wooden clip to the back of the reindeer head. This makes it easy to use as a decoration for napkins, name tags, gift ribbons, or even as a unique money or gift card holder. For example, fold banknotes accordion-style and secure them with the clip.
