{ I switched it up slightly by adding ribbon…what?-it’s a smidge different! 😉 }
Best part? I made it for $1!
DIY:
Supplies:
vase {I recycled mine}
branches {from your yard}
candy corn {$1 store}
hot glue gun
Directions:
Fill vase with floral foam {mine already had it}.
Shove branches into position in foam.
Hot glue candy corns onto branch ends. Get creative. 🙂
Scatter leftover candy corns to cover ugly green foam.
Note: I only used 2/3 bag of candy corn so technically this project cost me $0.75…
…which leaves the other 1/3 for YOU! 😉

So sweet! I love it! Good thing I don't really like the taste of candy corn – I'd be tempted to eat the decoration otherwise! 😉
Sandra says
This makes me laugh! It's such a cute idea and so cheap!!! ridiculous
I have a few PB black Halloween branches {that I bought on sale after Halloween} that I've been using as a Halloween tree but I think I'll mix it up this year and do a candy corn tree. Love it. Thanks for linking up.

That's too cute!! Candy corn was my mom's favorite candy – she used to eat it by the color. I might need one of these in my house for Halloween!!
