Instructions

Step 1: Glue the end of the yarn to one end of the candy cane form, then begin wrapping it around the form until the whole thing is covered. Use hot glue to tack the yarn in place as needed.

Step 2: Stuff one of the green gloves with fiber fill until it looks like a hand is inside the glove. I started with each finger so I could make sure the stuffing went all the way to the ends of each finger.

Step 3: Glue a wire ornament hook between the thumb and pointer finger of the glove. Look at your own hand as a reference to get the placement right.

Step 4: Shove part of the glove cuff into the crook end of the candy cane form and once you’re happy with the look of it, glue it in place.

Step 5: Cut a piece of white faux fur trim to fit all the way around the cuff and glue it down.

Step 6: Add a little ribbon loop at the top for easy hanging. I just scooched the yarn aside and tied mine directly to the metal form, then pushed the yarn back into place around the ribbon.
