Kids Craft: Easy DIY Candy Cane Ornaments

Thrifty Thinking

DIY FRI.

It’s DIY FRI. , where every week I try to post something you can do yourself rather than buy, which is a money saver, and can be VERY REWARDING.  Some of these posts are crafts, sewing projects, homemade cleaners, homemade health aids, tutorials, and the like.

Both of my girls came home needing to bring stocking stuffers for their entire classes.  Last year at a craft show we bought some pipe cleaner candy cane ornaments, and I thought this would be a great idea to make for the whole class.  My 4 year old could even do this.  It’s pretty self explanatory.

Materials Needed:

  • 12” pipe cleaners (we were able to buy them already multicolored)
  • wire cutters (if you want to make them small)

Pipe Cleaner to Candy Cane Ornaments@ practical-stewardship.com Instructions:

Cut the pipe cleaners into 6” segments and bend.  Have fun giving them away!

Do you have any frugal stocking stuffer ideas for an entire classroom?
