Neighbor Christmas Gift: Candy Canes

Do you want a neighbor’s Christmas gift that is simple, yummy, inexpensive, and yet also very cute?

Look no further than this darling box of candy canes as a neighbor gift this holiday season.

Ten mini candy canes fit perfectly in these darling red and white striped candy-boxes.

The boxes fold and tie together very easily (see video on this page) and they also come with pre-cut ribbons.

This gift is so fun, vibrant, and pretty.

It is also very inexpensive and only requires two supplies, yes you heard that right, just two supplies.

Another bonus is that the gift only takes a minute or two to put together as well.

You can watch the video on this post to see how easy they are to put fold, tie, stuff, and tie together.

I think this gift would be well received as my kids and I would love this neighbor gift for the holidays as candy canes—especially mini candy canes have many uses.

They can be used for decor, ornaments, gingerbread house candy, flavoring hot cocoa, and as a fun holiday treat to eat.

My kids thought that these neighbor gifts were so pretty and fun. My daughter asked to keep the box. If I didn’t have extra I’m not sure I would have said yes—that is just how great they are.

Directions on How to Make this Neighbor Christmas Gift: Candy Canes

Continue reading and/or watch the video on this page to see how to assemble this gift.

1- Fold and mold the box into its shape a bit with your hands so that you can more easily tie one end with ribbon.

2- Tie one end with ribbon. Now it will hold its shape.

3- Set the box upright and stuff it with 9-10 mini candy canes. 6 go in on one way and then you can stuff two in each of the remaining corners. Stuff the plastic wrappers down into the box so that they are not poking out of the ends.

4- Tie the other end with ribbon and tie a mini candy cane into that knot. See the video if this is unclear.

5- Tie the ribbons into bows that are about the same size as the other.

That’s it. These Neighbor Christmas Gifts of candy canes are so quick and easy and yet just so cute!
