Candy Cane Holders

Since I have a lot of candy canes around from the candy cane horses I thought I'd try and make something else with them. I remembered seeing something on Pinterest where a character is holding the candy cane so I went with that.

These were pretty easy to make. I sewed the face on a piece of felt first, then made the additional parts, like Rudolph's ears and antlers, and then I sewed the two pieces of felt together adding in two loops of felt to be the hands holding the candy cane.

How cute would these little guys be hanging on a Christmas tree?

Candy Cane Horses

My Mum saw this idea for candy cane horses on Pinterest.

Their creation is pretty much all down to her. She does the important crocheting and I just stick on the googly eyes and tie on some red ribbon for the reigns.

These sold pretty well at a Christmas craft fair a couple of weeks ago, with one woman saying they were the perfect present for a horse vet she knows.
