Candy Cane Centerpiece
Make a candy cane vase that looks great on a Christmas dining table!
Servings 1 vase
Cost $5
Equipment
- 1 Scissors
Ingredients
- 1 Glass vase(s)
- 3 boxes candy cane(s)
- Ribbon(s)
Instructions
- Using a hot glue gun, place a bead of glue onto the candy cane wrapper and hold onto the surface until cool. Repeat until the entire vase is covered.
- Cut a length of ribbon. Tie around the center into a bow. If your vase is taller than your candy canes, glue a ribbon the width of the extra space around the top or bottom.
- Fill with your favorite flowers or ornaments.
Notes
I used candy canes that were shrink wrapped with plastic, and the plastic was tightly secured. I didn't unwrap any candy canes.
Candy canes vary in size, even within the same box. Try to even them up either at the bottom or the top of the vase with a pair of scissors or a craft knife, but don’t worry too much about getting everything perfect. The end-result looks great even if they aren’t perfectly straight.
