I have realised what has been missing from my craft life all these years: CANDY STRIPES!!! They bring to a project a touch of childhood magic, a whiff of whimsical charm that only, well, candy stripes can deliver! Think old school sweet shops, think traditional barber shops and milkshake bars. Mmmmmmm, delicious. Being the neurotic shopper that I am, I’m holding out on buying any candystriped treats as of yet until I find the best bargain and the yummiest products out there. Whet your appetite with these lovelies…
Another beautiful creation from Olivia Kanaley over at a field journal
Adorable yellow bags found here on Etsy.
Try making these gorgeous Martha Stewart candy striped cookie sticks for yourself!
I will definitely be buying these versions of candy striped paper bags (possibly in each colour!)
Another Etsy find, this time from fort & field.
I’m throwing a baby shower for my sister next month and am trying to think of ways to shoe-horn candy stripes into the event any way I possibly can!

Ooo I love the candy stripes! I hope they make an appearance at the baby shower! I am already all over the Etsy bags too – good stuff! x
