Candy Cane Seeds

December 9, 2014 by Holly Gagnon 7 Comments


Did you know that if you  plant Candy Cane Seeds {aka-peppermints} on Christmas Eve , Candy Canes will grow?  They do.   It’s pure magic that only adults can pull off, if we remember of course.

Candy Cane Seeds

Even though my kids are getting older, I love how they still believe in the magic of Christmas.   Just like planting these peppermints is sheer excitement to them.

I’ve continued these silly lil’ traditions in our household that  embraces their innocence.   The Tooth Fairy, Easter Bunny , Leprechauns and of course Santa and our pesky Elf, Jr  are still magical in their eyes.

To make the boxes, I used We R Memory Keepers Pillow Box punch board and Pebbles Inc pretty Home for Christmas patterned papers.

Then I used my Silhouette CAMEO to make a fun Candy Cane Seed printable to adhere on to the front of the boxes.  Click to print off your own Candy Cane Seeds Labels

Fill up the boxes with peppermints and wrap up  them up with a pretty ribbon and adhere label on front.
