[Nfb-krafters-korner] ideas

If you take a white pipe cleaner and shape it like the letter J.  Then take a red pipe cleaner and coal it around the white one, as close or wide as you want.  I guess you would have to glue it a bit here and there.  On the back, slide a safty pin between the red and white pipe cleaners at least twice.  This would make it textured.  You might also use red yarn on the pipe cleaner instead of 2 pipe cleaners.  
Just a few ideas, not tested.
I am not a lover of glue.

Pipe cleaners designers! I need some suggestions on ideas for pipe cleaner pins. I am trying to design a pin with pipe cleaners that would involve a candy cane, red and white with a white cane over it sort of like a X with a pin backing, but smaller to give away for a donation for our local NFB chapter for a Christmas table. Like the veterans do with poppies or red cross pins.  If any of you have any suggestions on how to design white cane to look like a cane and not a pipe cleaner, I would love to hear it.
