I will admit, I am soooo over the mustache trend. But something really funny happened last week and I just couldn’t resist making these candy cane mustaches!
I posted a tutorial at Dollar Store Crafts last week for some adorable Reindeer Candy Cane Treats. A few fans commented on the DSC Facebook page that they had thought the project was a mustache! It really cracked me up! When Heather, the creator of DSC, joked that I should make mustaches, I couldn’t stop giggling about the idea. So I made a few!
These are crazy easy to make. Cut a bump chenille stick in half. Twist it around a candy cane stick. Use a pencil to “twirl” the ends of your mustache. That’s it!
And that, my friends, is the difference between a mustache and a pair of antlers!

Have fun flaunting your ‘stache this holiday season. Maybe make it in white so you can look like a young Santa. But then we’re all moving on in 2013…because mustaches are so 2011. 🙂
Hilarious! I love it! I wonder if you can make other variations too (i.e. handlebar mustache). This would totally make awesome props for holiday photos 🙂

I made these for my birthday party favors. They were a hit. Super fun! http://lifestooshorttoskipdessert.blogspot.com/2012/12/cherry-hazelnut-nutella-fudge.html
Morena – Feel free to post away! I also brought my left over candy canes to a different party the next day. Still a hit! lol
