Sienna

Light up your driveway or walkway with these cute candy cane pathway markers. There are five candy canes within the set, and each one is connected by a wire and has lights on the inside, so you can enjoy the candy canes all day and night. The candy canes are the classic red and white swirl, and the lights on the inside are not LED so they give off more of a warm glow. Each cane is about 26 inches tall, and they are easy to stake into the ground. The cord that is attached is a little on the short side, so you may want to have an extension cord on hand if you have to plug-in to an outlet that’s far away. This set of candy canes is also great if you don’t want to put lights on your roof, but still want some lights on the outside of your house. Keep in mind there are only five candy canes in the set, so you may need to order multiple sets depending on how large your driveway/walkway is.
