giant santa & reindeer candy-filled canes

this post was originally posted on Design Dazzle's Christmas Wonderful Series.

when i think of christmas season, 
candy canes and reindeer come to mind.
something like this actually:
did you guys ever make a reindeer out of a candy cane? 
it's super duper easy but i wanted to do it 
a little different this time. 
i have no clue why things in mini and giant size are so fun 
but today i am making these candy canes in mega style.

here's what you'll need:
you can get the candy-filled canes at 
dollar tree or anywhere really. 
i was just going the cheap route to save up 
my coins for my family's christmas gifts. 
and besides that, you can get a bunch and 
make them for your kid's class too and it won't cost you an arm or leg :)

here's the how to:

and a couple more details.

like a smile for instance since there really 
isn't room on a regular size candy cane to 
make one, i took advantage of the space.

see?
i just used some paint markers.
i think they need one more detail. 
like a bow around their neck?
nooo. 
i was thinking something else, like this:
hey that looks like...
it is! it's him!!!

now the reindeer are all set with 
the big man in red and white.
so HO! HO! HO! 
to all and to all a good night.
(for now)
