However, I am struggling to create the stripes in a cube. Can anyone recommend the best way to do this, or suggest which brick number(s) I could use? Many thanks! The old macaroni bricks could be used staggered, so that might work, but it would be rather large, much bigger than minifigure scale. On a smaller scale, you could use one of these in white:   *  43888 Support 1 x 1 x 6 Solid Pillar Parts: Support and wrap a long thin red sticker around it to create the candy cane effect. Or use a red one and wrap a white sticker around it.
