I always make an ornament for my kids
and an old high school friend.
What should I do this year?!
Welp, while checking out Autostraddle to see if they've got another
Orange is the New Black recap, I saw this article on making ornaments.
These ornaments caught my fancy...
...but I couldn't find the required plastic candy canes.
However!
I found cardstock gift tags at Target!
I tore strips of pink-striped fabric,
glued a little bit at the tricky end curved parts......
... secured the end with hot glue,
wrapped the strips tightly around the cardstock...
... hot-glued the end,
and poked the sparkly thread through the hole to make a hanger.
It was speedy-quick,
and I love the end results!
Wouldn't these look great in a variety of bright candy colors,
scattered all over a tree?
