Thank you so much, I'm so glad that you enjoyed it! I do try to explain things as thoroughly as possible so I am glad to hear that you found the instruction precise☺
Thank you so much 😊🙏 The snowman candy container class is available in my Big Cartel shop. It’s a long format class, 2.5+ hours, with a kit that comes with all of the materials to make 2 snowmen candy containers. I have several other similar format classes with kits in my shop as well, and am also hoping to make more for public viewing on RUclips as well because it’s been really fun sharing this here! 😊
I look forward to see more of your cotton spun projects as well as any other crafts. You have a good instructional tempo and thorough details for easy following.
Thank you so much, I appreciate that! I'm working on more tutorials right now and do have some longer format online classes with kits available in my Big Cartel shop 😊
I love this so much! Every year I make my six children and their babies homemade ornaments. I was looking for something special and that I would have plenty of time to make for My ever growing family. This came across my RUclips channel today and I could not be happier! They will love this so much because Candy canes have a special meaning in our family and, I am so happy to make these for everyone. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and creativity with us. I will share my completed pictures as soon as possible!❤
I love this project as well. I’m trying to decide if I’m going to needle felt ornaments again this year or switch to spun cotton ornaments. I appreciate your detailed instructions.
Yes! 😁😁😁 cotton is a great material for ornaments, it’s so lightweight and there is so much you can do with it. If you have a chance google, or go on Pinterest, and look at antique spun cotton ornaments, that’s what got me started! Also if you want to see more that I’ve done over the years I’m on Instagram as FullMoonWares. Thanks so much for watching! 😊🙏♥️
OMG! I’ve been looking for a new hobby. I’m really looking forward to trying to make the candy canes. A perfect beginner introduction to spun cotton crafting. Thank you for the inspiration.
Hi, thank you so much for your interest in my art ☺️🙏 I do have a snowman Candy container class (the snowmen in this video) available in my Big Cartel shop that comes with a kit. It’s a 3 hour long paid class and is on sale at the moment. My paid classes are hosted on RUclips as well, they are private videos that once you have access to them, you can watch it as many times as you like just like any other RUclips video. I do have another really fun free class coming to RUclips this week as well. 😊
I loved your video, I never knew these were made from cotton! I’m going to watch more of your tutorials, I definitely learned something new today. I’m so glad I found you, I’m always looking for crafts that are uncommon, I think this makes a gift even more special. Thank you so much!😊♥️🙏🏻
Thank you so much, I'm excited you found a new craft to explore! 🥰 This one is definitely uncommon!, which I why I am so happy to share some of the process, in hopes that I will inspire more crafters to give it a try! 😊♥️
Amazingly I have all these supplies in my craft room already, except I have wool instead of cotton but it should work the same! I’m so excited to try this -thanks!
I loved your video, you must make more, I just found how to use spun cotton, and you explain it so well. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos.
Thank you so much for saying so 🥰 I really love to teach! I do have some other classes available in my online shop, and am hoping to do more free tutorials here as well! I'm so glad you've enjoyed this one 🤗
Oh I love this!!! So glad I came across your channel ❤❤. I have to go and order this beautiful kit right away. Thank you for sharing your talent with us❤❤
Thank you so much, I’m so glad that you found me! ☺️ I hope that you have fun making the candy canes! if you want to see more of my spun cotton art I’m on Instagram FullMoonWares
Oh, thank you for another video! I really enjoyed my icicle kit as well as the Halloween cat in the Jack-o-lantern! Cant wait to try the darlings little candy canes !!! ❤❤❤
Thank you so much Lori🥰 This will be an easy one for you now that you've tried some of the others, simple but still very enjoyable for an level, I LOVE making these candy canes!
You are an amazing teacher in person and online! Thank you for the wonderful gift of this tutorial. I look forward to my next in person class! Maybe a swan?😊
I just found you and really enjoyed the video and I am really inspired to make more things following you! I love homemade, and your candy canes look so professional and so beautiful .Thank you for sharing! 🎄🎄🎄
Awww, thank you so much! 🙏☺️ I’m so glad that you enjoyed the video & I’m thrilled to have inspired you to make some candy canes of your own-and maybe more in the future! 😊💕
OMG how freaking cute are THEY!! Where do you get your glass and mica glitter? Do they come combined or do you have to mix them from separate packages? Thanks for sharing!!
Yes, you definitely can, it will just be a slightly different finish, but will also be really cute!! If you use batting for this, I recommend the type of batting that you can pull apart that does not have a scrim in it because it will be easier to spin and smooth.
Loved this ❤️ !! Thank you Do these become hard when they dry? Or are they always plyable/squishy? Apply more coats of glue mix? Thank you again, so fun!!!
They are pretty rigid and hold their shape very well, so I wouldn’t see a need for more glue wash. Once they have totally dried you can still bend them but the cotton may get some splits in it at the bend
I do offer 2 different snowman classes with kits in my Big Cartel shop, they are longer format around 3 hours. And I have plans for more RUclips tutorials in 2025 as well 😊
You're welcome! I think its just a matter of preference, you can see with my finished pieces that you can not discern what type of glue mixture that I use. My pieces are warm and still retain the fibery texture of the cotton. I like the school glue because its ready made so all you need to do is add water, it's long lasting and much more durable than a starch mixture, also it will not attract insects or other pests. People started out making their own glue with starches because that is what the had when prepared glue was not readily available. The con with the school glue is if you use too much your piece may have a "plasticy" finish, but that will not happen if you mix it with the appropriate amount of water.
New subbie here...love this old craft that's new to me...can you tell me...I am at a historic site event where spinners are demonstrating...is this the same cotton you use?
Can you please post a video or share where we can see how you make your glitter and where you buy the supplies? I have seen multiple people using the "old" glitter and would love to get/make some! Thank you!
Hi, I do sell supply kits for this project in my Big Cartel shop that includes the glitter blend that I’m using in the video. You can find antique glitters in shops that specialize in antique and Victorian style crafts. I really like D. Blumchen
Hi, have you gone to my Big Cartel shop? I sell there primarily, not on Etsy. I’m an artist and I mostly sell one of a kind pieces that sell out quickly when they are listed. Since I also teach in person, I have created online courses as well that come with supplies kits. Right now I have some kits and tutorials available in my shop, including the candy canes kit that is made to accompany this free video. There are some others that have sold out because I am currently having a “year end sale”. I will restock the sold out kits after the holidays. One of a kind pieces are available as they are finished and I announce their availability on Instagram. Once they sell out I temporarily leave some of the listings up as sort of a gallery of what has recently sold so people Who don’t use Instagram can see what I’ve been working on. This has become a common way of operating for full time artists and makers who sell online, it’s wonderful because social media and online sales platforms have provided so many options for small businesses these days. In the past one of the only options would have been to load everything in your car and travel to a show or art fair and hope you have a good day. Thank you, and Happy Holidays! 😊
Such a cute craft and fun to add to gifts!
Yes, they are perfect for gifting! my favorite use is as a package topper, and then the recipient gets a little ornament as a bonus ☺️
Thank you, I learned a lot from you.
You’re welcome, I’m so happy to hear it! ☺️🙏 I have a new video coming out this week
Really enjoyed this tutorial! Hope you make many more!

@@FullMoonWaresyes…yes….yes! More videos please!
Can you use thin strips of cotton batting?
Yes, you definitely can, it will just be a slightly different finish, but will also be really cute!! If you use batting for this, I recommend the type of batting that you can pull apart that does not have a scrim in it because it will be easier to spin and smooth.
great video
Thanks so much!
Loved this ❤️ !! Thank you
Do these become hard when they dry? Or are they always plyable/squishy? Apply more coats of glue mix?
Thank you again, so fun!!!

Need snowman ⛄️ how to video, PLEASE!
I do offer 2 different snowman classes with kits in my Big Cartel shop, they are longer format around 3 hours. And I have plans for more RUclips tutorials in 2025 as well 😊
Thank you for the tutorial! What are the pros and cons of using a glue mixture vs a cornstarch mixture?
You're welcome! I think its just a matter of preference, you can see with my finished pieces that you can not discern what type of glue mixture that I use.

@@FullMoonWares thanks! That makes sense about using glue instead. I'm looking forward to trying more projects. They are fun to make!
New subbie here...love this old craft that's new to me...can you tell me...I am at a historic site event where spinners are demonstrating...is this the same cotton you use?
Hi, yes it is! It’s called cotton “sliver”, you can spin it on a wheel to make yarn
THANK YOU 🤍🤍🤍
Thank you for watching! ☺
Nice
Thanks so much ☺️🙏
Can you please post a video or share where we can see how you make your glitter and where you buy the supplies? I have seen multiple people using the "old" glitter and would love to get/make some! Thank you!

Hi! I sell primarily on Big Cartel, I do have a few kits on Etsy but not the Candy Cane kit. fullmoonwares.bigcartel.com/
Hello, where did you get this mica? I've been looking for it everywhere but I can't find it. It's wall decor, right?
you can find all sorts of mica online in a craft supply shop that specializes in antique craft materials, I like D. Blumchen for one
These are fun projects, but I do not understand your store, everything is sold out.
