"Candy Cane Heart Ornament"
Materials:
2 candy canes for each heart (1 box will make 6 hearts)
BE CREATIVE. USE WHAT YOU HAVE BEFORE YOU BUY ;)
5-inch long piece of ribbon (curling ribbon works great)
1 small decoration for top of heart such as; an old button, bow, curly ribbon, lace, silk flower, berries, dried rose, glitter, even a wrapped peppermint hard candy
Low temp glue gun
Directions:
Lay everything out on a clean, flat surface. Plug in your glue gun, while it warms up lay the candy out to see how best they fit. Use a small dab of glue at the bottom of the canes then glue the top where they meet. Allow to dry, add hanging ribbon and glue final touches.
Use as: ornaments, gift tags, napkin rings in center of each plate or personalized take home gifts for your guests.
Tip: No one will eat these they are too pretty....so buy the candy canes after the holidays at 75 to 90% off.
