A Festive Treat Holder You’ll Love to Make

Today I’m sharing these super cute Christmas Candy Cane Pouches — a quick and cheerful project that’s perfect for the festive season. These pouches are ideal for stocking fillers, table favours, teacher gifts, or a little something extra to pop into a neighbour’s letterbox. They look gorgeous, yet they come together in minutes, making them excellent for batch-making.

Three Designs, Endless Possibilities

I created three variations to show how easily you can switch up the look simply by changing the cardstock and paper:

Real Red + Traditions of Christmas DSP – A bright and classic Christmas design with traditional poinsettias and rich festive tones.
Garden Green + Christmas Tags & More DSP – A fun and playful version with candy canes and cheerful patterns.
Real Red + North Pole Delivery DSP – A nostalgic, postage-themed design that feels wonderfully whimsical and perfect for gifting.

Each pouch is decorated using a selection of die-cuts from the Christmas Tags & More DSP, along with coordinating Greetings for You cardstock stickers. These elements make decorating quick, easy, and beautifully cohesive.

Simple to Make, Fun to Gift

These pouches hold two candy canes comfortably and can be adapted to suit almost any occasion. You could easily swap the treats for chocolate sticks, mini gifts, pencils, or even a wrapped biscuit. They’re the perfect project if you enjoy creating small, yet meaningful, handmade gifts.

You’ll find that the construction is wonderfully straightforward. All you need is cardstock, your chosen DSP, adhesive, and a few embellishments. I’ll add a full supply list and measurements at the end of this post so you can recreate them exactly.

Video Tutorial Coming Soon

A full step-by-step video tutorial will be included below showing you how to assemble the pouch from start to finish. It’s an ideal project for both beginner and experienced crafters, and a great one to make with children, too.

Measurements

Real Red / Garden Green Cardstock – 5 1/2″ X 6″, Scored at 2 1/” and 5″ on the 5 1/2″ side and 1″ on the 6″ side.
Two strips measuring just shy of 2 1/2″ wide and 5″ long.

Stocking Stuffer – How to Make a Candy Cane Pouch.

They are great for using up scrap pieces of patterned paper which we all have. The snowflakes are the One of a Kind dies and I cut them from the Festive Glimmer Designer Series Paper (DSP).

Every year I make candy cane pouches. This is what I came up with this year. I keep these in the house around December to give to visitors. You could also add a ribbon and hang them on the Christmas Tree.

These are easy to make in bulk as they are just little pockets. I’ve used a punch to add decorative detail to the opening. Do you like candy canes? If so what is your favourite flavour? Let me know in the comments below.

Make a Candy Cane Pouch for Christmas

Make a Candy Cane Pouch for Christmas – Holly Jolly Wishes – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

I make one of these candy cane pouches each year and this is my offering this time. I hope you like it. It is very easy to make and a lovely little gift to any house guest over Christmas.

I’ve used the Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper (DSP) which has lovely small patterns perfect for small projects such as these. I should warn you though to never eat any sweets, chocolates or candy canes you find in my craft room as they have been used and reused in project samples and are well out of date!! These candy canes are from last year. The good stuff is kept in the pantry.

measurements

Tidings of Christmas DSP – 6″ X 6″ scored at 1 1/2″ & 4 1/2″ on one side and 2″ on the second side.

Candy Cane Pouches – Stampin’ Up!

I make Candy Cane pouches every year. Normally, I use the envelope punch board but now it has retired. I really want it back!! This one is made using the Simply Scored Scoring Tool and label punches. I think they turned out pretty cute.

Wrapped in Plaid is one my favourite Christmas Designer Series Paper from this current catalogue. It is so elegant with the foiled elements on one side. In previous years, I’ve made this as gifts for my neighbours in lieu of baking biscuits. The funny thing is that although I’ve tons of these I don’t actually ever eat candy canes. I’m a Type 1 diabetic and actually chose to only eat sweets when my blood sugar falls low and I need to bring it up quickly.

measurements

Wrapped in Plaid 6″ X 6″ Designer Series Paper – (DSP) Scored at
- 1 5/8″ on either side on one side
- Turn paper by 90 degrees and score at 1″

You can hang these pouches from your tree by punching a hole in the top and threading some coordinating ribbon or twine through.

Other projects

I love making decorations or gifts for people. It means so much more when you have taken the time to make something rather than just buying a generic thing in a shop. I enjoy the process as well as as the giving of a handmade gift.

The video tutorial and supply are below. Thank you for dropping by and until next time Enjoy Being Creative!!
