I love Christmas and I love creating Christmas decorations. If you’re part of The Shabby Tree then you already know that we make a lot of fun and unique decorations for Christmas. I have some wooden candy canes that we can use to create a fun and very easy sleigh decoration.
The supplies that I’ll be using are listed down below.
1. Two wooden candy canes from our website
2. One recycled box
3. Hot glue
4. Sand paper or sanding sponge
5. X-acto knife and scissors
6. Gold spray paint
7. Red spray paint
8. Gold ribbon
My candy canes haves some mica flakes on them so I used a sanding sponge to remove it.
Once I had the mica flakes removed I then spray painted the candy canes. I’m using a gold colored spray paint.
The next step is to cut my recycled box. I cut my box to be 6 inches tall.
Once I had the box cut to size, I then cut out the shape of a sleigh.
Once I had the sleigh cut I then spray painted it with red spray paint.
Once the sleigh was dry I then glued the candy canes in place.
This sleigh is so easy to make and can be used so many different ways.
I added some gold ribbon around the edge of my sleigh.
This sleigh is going to make such a cute decoration for Christmas. I hope you’ll get creative and give this a try.
So cute and original!
Love this sleigh! You are so creative!
What a good idea. Love the sled
