Next, glue nine more candy corns atop the first layer, slightly offsetting them to create a pumpkin shape. Allow the glue to dry again. For the stem, bend one end of a green pipe cleaner and glue it to the back of the pumpkin.

Adding the Final Touches

Once the glue has set, attach a craft stick to the back of your pumpkin using a small amount of glue. Let it dry. Now, your darling candy corn pumpkin is ready to decorate your home or be gifted to a friend!

You'll need:

  • Candy corn
  • Floral wire
  • Green pipe cleaners

Forming the Wreath Base

Using the floral wire, form a circle about 12 inches in diameter. Make sure it's tight and sturdy, as this will serve as the base for your wreath.

Wrap the wire with a green pipe cleaner, leaving some spazio for attaching the candy corn. You can also twist a little vine from a dollar store ivy garland around the wire to give it a more natural look.

Adding the Candy Corn

Apply a small amount of hot glue to the back of each candy corn, far enough from the tip so they'll stick to the wreath base. Start at the top of your wreath and work your way down, overlapping the candy corn slightly to create a dense, full look. Let the glue set before adding your hanging ribbon or twine.

Displaying with Pride

Hang your candy corn wreath on your door, and enjoy the sweet sight! You can also add a cute fall-themed bow or adorn it with mini pumpkins and leaves for an even more festive look.
