Today we have two of our favorite girls here at our Open House series. Heather & Vanessa are the sisters from At The Picket Fence and are not only are they some of the most talented and creative girls in Blogland, but they also among the nicest! We are so happy they are joining us today, just look at this super cute project they are here to share :
Hi there! I’m Heather from At the Picket Fence and I’m so thrilled to be
here today as part of this awesome Open House. We love the girls at 11
Magnolia Lane!
Today I’m going to be sharing with you one of the absolute most simple
Christmas crafts you would possibly do. And want to know the best
part? You can get everything you need right at your local Dollar
Store!
Candy Cane Wreath Supplies:
One white Styrofoam wreath form
9-10 packs of Dollar Tree acrylic candy canes (depending on size of wreath form)
white or iridescent glitter (optional)
white craft glue
hot glue gun and low temp glue sticks (appropriate for using on Styrofoam)
Ribbon for hanging
Tutorial:
This wreath couldn’t have been easier!
Begin by hot gluing your candy canes one at a time around your wreath.
Make sure that the ends are tight together, and ends of candy canes
are right up against the opening of the wreath. The tops of the candy
canes will be farther apart then the bottom, and the first candy cane
will rest on top of the next as seen in the picture below.
Now all that’s left to do is hang it in a place in your home where it
is sure to be noticed by all!
Thanks again to the lovely Magnolia Lane girls for having me here
today and I hope you will stop by and visit us At the Picket
Fence sometime to see lots more Christmas ideas and inspiration!
Thanks, girls for sharing your project!

What a great wreath! I saw those candy canes, but I couldn’t figure out what to do with them! I knew I should have bought a few packs! Life to the full! Melissa
