Wouldn't it be easier to put the flowers in AFTER the candy is in place?

Take it from me: Decorate the jar with candy canes BEFORE you arrange the roses/flowers. ALSO: You might be better off hot-gluing the candy canes to the jar. No matter what size rubber band you use (Or what size jar), the candy canes do not want to stay put. Double-sided tape PLUS a rubber band could also work.

Great idea but would use clear wrapped candy canes so that the grandchildren (of all ages) can eat them and they would not be spoiled by the close contact to flowers or dust etc. Would also do canes first THEN the flower arrangement as I'm so clumsy.

Thanks for a greta idea that is simple to do and so attractive. If as one lady mentioned, no candy sticks'canes, use rolled up pieces of striped paper with a shiney coating for similar effect but be careful not to us too tight a band.

Peppermint sticks? Can you use candy canes instead

im thinking this MIGHT only be good for a week or 2 IF you make them with real flowers.
