Tasty Treat Candy Cane Ornament
Hand-painted ornaments make for quick and easy DIY Christmas Crafts. This Tasty Treat Candy Cane Ornament from iLoveToCreate is no exception. This candy cane craft uses ceramic bisque and glazes to get the beloved colored stripe appearance. When you’re all done painting, you’ll need access to a kiln so that the color sets. Make multiple ones using different colors to give as gifts, or just keep them for yourself. These homemade ornaments will look great hanging on your tree this holiday season!
