First you have to mix equal parts glue and shaving cream together. Mix in a couple of drops of peppermint extract. Next add your glitter. Save some glitter to sprinkle on top too! If you are making the red add in a couple of drops of red food coloring.

Now you are ready to paint! Alternate white and red in a pattern to make a candy cane!
