Candy Cane Snowflake Decorations

thingiverse

Snowflake decoration designed for my mom and sister. You'll need a box of 12 candy canes per decoration, maybe more if you're heavy handed and break them while inserting them. I've found that with the "standard" Brach's candy canes it's probably best to print at 101%. Candy canes have some variation in size, and I've found if you gently wiggle the candy canes they'll eventually work their way in if they're too tight, and a couple of layers of scotch tape help them fit if they're too small. If you're worried about them staying in place, a small dab of hot glue on the inside couldn't hurt. The included SnowFlakeTest file can be printed pretty quickly if you want to test sizing. Hang them with a small loop of ribbon.
