Candy Cane Christmas Tree DIY

As I was shopping for my craft supplies last weekend I spotted a Candy Cane Christmas tree on one of their shelves. I simply fell in love. It was a bit pricey so I only took a picture. My plan was to make my own but budget friendly Christmas DIY. I know I could do it. My plan was to make even a bigger one that they offered. Here is a picture that I took at the store. Don’t you just want to lick it …ha ha ha . Let’s get some ribbon so we can start our Christmas craft! I hope it will be also kids friendly Christmas craft

Choosing a right ribbon wasn’t easy … have to admit that … because they have so much to choose from! All I wanted was 1.5 inch wide ribbon fairly thick with candy cane stripes on it.

As you can see ribbon i chose isn’t that typical candy cane pattern but I was determined to make it work simply because it was only $3 a spooll!


Let’s begin making our Candy Cane Ribbon Christmas craft


  • Prepare your ribbon. Loop your ribbon ( each loop around 3 inches) for a quick assembly later as it shown on the picture below

  • cut your loop only on one side only. You will end up with around 6 inch long strips

  • fold your each strip into tear like shape as it is shown below

  • Glue your first row of looped ribbon lower then your loop height is. I like mine to spread on the surface when Candy Cane Christmas tree is finished .

It really didn’t take long to make that tree. Maybe 15 min all together with all that strips cutting.
