Refreshed Christmas Reindeer

I was gifted some Christmas Yard Reindeer by my middle sister. The lights no longer worked and the deer were starting to rust. They sat in my backyard for a couple more years while I figured out what to do with them.

Two reindeer that need some love!

Hanging out in the flowerbed while I ponder what to do with them.

I clipped off the lights. You can see how the joints are starting to rust. I spray painted them with white primer.

Finally, inspiration! After wiring the pieces together, I started wrapping and hot gluing the sisal rope on.

Finally got one done! Now to do the other one but I need more sisal!
