I used some plastic multi colored Candy Canes that I purchased from Amazon in a package of 6. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FN81N8W?psc=1&red... Its a good idea to dab some hot glue on the back tip of the bottom and top back tips of candy cane covers to secure from slippage. I made 24 total for the Christmas Tree. Just put a metal ornament hook into the top of the Candy Cane and hang on the Christmas Tree. (✿◠‿◠)
