Christmas Candy Canes on the Front Door


A Walk in the Countryside: Christmas Front Door with Candy and Mesh Ribbon
 
Peppermints and candy canes so remind me of Christmas!  Last year I did a smaller version of this on the back door but this year I went bigger and better on the front porch.

Instead of the white with red stripes, I used the red with white which showed up better with the lime green.  Using a rope, I gathered both pieces of mesh and tied it onto the rope using wire.  Sliding my hand down about 12-14 inches, I gathered it again and secured it.  I tried to keep it at even intervals.  Does this make sense?  I’m confusing myself here!

Most of the candy on the garland, including the large candy canes are from Hobby Lobby.  The pieces on the wreath came from the Dollar Tree.

I inserted a few glittery sprays and sparking ribbons!

  10. Such a fun front door decoration! I just love using that deco mesh stuff. You did an outstanding job of adding great embellishments to the wreath and surround. I also saw the post with your inside decorations...they are wonderful too. I'm still not through decorating so I am going to steal some of your good ideas.
