DIY a Christmas Candy Cane Wreath

The finished candy can wreath hangs on our doll's faux stone fireplace for Christmas.
Supplies for this craft found in hobby shops and dollar stores.

       This very simple Christmas candy cane wreath can be made in very little time with just a few simple supplies. Our canning band came with twine already strung through it but you can hammer two little wholes with a nail and string red and white twine through a similar band purchased from a grocery store.
       Then wrap wired white tinsel around the band to make the basic wreath. We made our doll's tiny candy canes with read and white chenille stems from the dollar store. Just cut the stems in the same lengths (1 1/2") and bend the ends of one side only into a hook shape. Hot glue these to the wreath. 
       I wired a small wooden mini ornament of Santa riding a rocking horse to the bottom inside portion of our doll's winter wreath and tacked on a glittery paper bow with hot glue. 

Supply List:

  • canning lid band
  • red and white twine
  • nail and hammer
  • wired white tinsel rope
  • red and white twist chenille stems
  • green paper bow with pearl button
  • wooden ornament
  • hot glue and hot glue gun
Left the supplies needed for this craft. Center, close up of twine hanger. Right, canning band.
