Beside Candy Cane Reindeer, here it is another craft using candy cane. It is called Lacy Candy Cane. The materials you need are:
- candy cane of course
- lace with openings to weave ribbon through (about 18 inches)
- hot glue
- ribbon
Just weave the candy cane through the holes in the lace, gluing the lace at the top and bottom of the candy cane. Add ribbon bows where desired..VERY EASY, but VERY CLASSY looking!!
It is just an idea to give activity to your kids in class or Sunday school activity. You can expand your creativity with your own ideas.
Making a Candy Cane Reindeer is a lot of fun especially for Christmas.
To make one Candy Cane Reindeer you will need :
- two googly eyes(hehe..love calling them that)
- one candy cane
- one chenille pipe cleaner (your choice of colors)
- red pompom
- ribbon
- hot glue gun
Take your pipe cleaner and fold in half. Hook the hooked part of the candy cane and insert it in the fold of the pipe cleaner. Twist pipe cleaner twice and end with the pipe cleaners sticking up and away from the candy cane. Form into antler shapes. Glue pompom to the short end of the candy cane. Glue eyes above nose. Tie ribbon around the “neck” of the reindeer in a bow. All done and kids love them!!
