DIY: Candy Cane Wreath

Today I'm sharing a quick and easy Christmas craft that looks fabulous!

DIY CANDY CANE WREATH

My friend Vicki introduced me to the finished product via Pinterest.

The problem: no instructions! Every single picture I click on is simply a photo.

So if this is your idea, thank you for sharing and please let me know so I can give you mad props for this stroke of genius!

So here's how we did it:

1- Gather 18 candy canes, hot glue, ribbon, and various baubles & trinkets.

2- Put a line of hot glue down the back of a candy cane.

 

3- Put the hot glued side against the back of another candy cane. Pair up all 18 this way.

4: Glue the base and crooks of each pair to another pair.

 

5- Continue gluing until they meet back where you started.

6- Decorate with glittery doo-dads and add a ribbon for hanging. VIOLA!!

 

This is so simple that my 9-year-old made one all on his own.
