Tips to Make DIY Christmas Mouse Ears
- First, get everything you need at the Dollar Store. You might not think you can, but I did. Yeah, this is a set of Dollar Store Mickey ears and I’m proud of it!
- Be sure to leave a little extra wire on the end of the lights near the battery pack. If you don’t leave a little slack, you might have trouble positioning it to be hidden behind the wreaths. So, just keep that in mind when you’re wrapping the lights around the wreath.
- When you place the battery pack on the back of the Christmas Mickey ears, be sure to leave yourself space to turn the switch on and to get at the screw to replace your batteries. Think practical.
How Do I Make this Christmas Mickey Ears?

Instructions
- Wrap one end of the pine bough around a form 4-inches in diameter. I had a cornstarch container that worked well.

- Remove the pine bough from the form and wrap the ends of the pine bough onto the headband to one side.
- Repeat to make a second wreath ear.
- Wrap the Christmas lights through the wreath.
- Affix the battery pack in the center on the back side of the wreaths, between them.
- Hot glue the mini bows onto the front of the Mickey ears.
- Cut off several short lengths of the pine bough extra bits and hot glue them on top of the battery pack to further hide it.
- Enjoy!
