Cloth Candy Canes
- Total Time Needed:
- 2-3 Hours
Fashioned from colorful fabrics, this sweet Christmas icon will last season after season.
- Materials
-
- 3 strips of cotton fabric (we recommend using different colors and/or prints), 3 by 12 inches
- Waxed paper
- White glue
- Small paintbrush
- 3 pipe cleaners
- Wire cutters (optional)
- Instructions
-
-
One at a time, lay each fabric strip, printed side down, on a waxed paper-covered surface and use a paintbrush to coat it with a thin layer of glue. Place a pipe cleaner along one long edge. -
Roll the fabric around it as tightly as possible. Smooth down the outer edge. -
Pinch together the tops of the 3 wrapped pipe cleaners. Tightly twist them into a spiral and bend the top into a candy cane shape. -
Set the cane in a short drinking glass to dry (it can take several hours, depending on the humidity). Then neaten the ends by trimming them with wire cutters, if needed.
