Rub ‘n Buff Toy Reindeer {Tutorial}

Filed Under: Christmas, Crafts, DIY, My Projects Tagged With: christmas crafts, christmas decorating, Christmas Dining Rooms, Christmas Tablescapes, rub 'n buff, toy reindeer, Winter Wonderland

These are the little plastic toy reindeer that can be purchased at any craft store. I found mine at Hobby Lobby and AC Moore. They were used on my Winter Wonderland Tablescape.

Supplies Needed

reindeer

fan brush

Rub ‘n Buff in antique gold

Just squirt the Rub ‘n Buff onto a paper plate and paint onto the reindeer with the fan brush. They dry fairly quickly. You will need mineral spirits or paint thinner to clean your brush. It can not be simply cleaned with soap and water.

They really look like antiqued brass!! To see them in the entire tablescape please click this link: Winter Wonderland Tablescape

Merry Christmas!!!

I used all fresh from our woods last year, but just not wanting to fool with having to replace frequently……less stress and fuss this year is my goal! The little deer are actually the little plastic toys you can buy at the craft store. You can see how to transform them to look like this HERE. […]
