Decorative ribbon, not much
I'm a little embarrassed to show you the Taste of Home inspiration-link because my skills aren't nearly that of the magazine, but here is the original idea and instructions.

Aren't they cute?! I want to make a few more with some stripes and cluster them on my entry table. Warning: This is  a pretty messy project, I'd recommend wearing latex gloves. I've been peeling Mod Podge off my fingers all evening.

Candy Corn Wreath

This was a FUN project that the kids enjoyed helping with. This idea came from the October cover of Woman's Day 2010.  You need : 14"-18" Styrofoam wreath ring, 2-3 bags of candy corn, black duct tape, a glue gun, and some wide black grosgrain ribbon.

All wrapped in duct tape, ready for candy!

Wrap the wreath tightly in the duct tape. The easiest way to put on the candy corn in a uniform manner is to make a full circle with the candy corn facing the same direction, starting with the inner rings. Change the direction of the the candy corn with each successive ring of candy.Use hot glue to secure the candy on the wreath. Make a loop of ribbon into a hanger. All done! Now try not to pick off the candy and eat it!
