Twine Wrapped Candy Corn Garland
Tis the season for all things candy corn and this darling candy corn garland is a great way to decorate. I love that it is simple and fun to make. The best part is that it created an adorable garland that can be made in any size and any length using a few simple materials. Hemptique makes lots of beautiful colors of hemp cord that work perfectly for this project and so many others ones too. Let’s get started and make a candy corn garland!
Materials Needed
- Hemptique Hemp Cord (Orange and Yellow)
- Cotton Lace Trim
- Cardboard or Chip Board for Base (This is a great time to recycle cereal boxes!)
- Craft Glue or Glue Gun
- Printable Pattern
- Scissors
Directions for Twine Wrapped Candy Corn Garland
Step One
Use the pattern to cut out the number of candy corn pieces necessary for the garland.
Step Two
Adhere a coat of white glue to the bottom third of the cut out candy corn. Wrap yellow hemp cord around the entire piece to create the first of the three colors found in traditional candy corn pieces.
Step Three
Add another layer of glue and wrap the orange hemp cord to create the second section to the candy corn.
Step Four
Add glue to the top of the candy corn piece and attach a piece of cotton lace trim to top of the candy corn.
Step Five
Create as many candy corn pieces in whatever sizes you would like in your garland. If you want to get fancy, braid the hemp cord first and use the braided segment to wrap around the chipboard.
Step Six
Once the glue is dry, thread a long piece of hemp cord through the holes in the lace trip to connect the pieces and hang the garland.
