Step five: Glue 10 spools in a circular shape and glue 3 inside to hold the shape.
Step six: Stack the spool circles and glue them together. Top it with a single spool. Glue the large spool at the base.
Step seven: Glue two Tim Holtz mirror stars together back to back and glue them to top of the tree.
Step eight: Glue a little bow to the base of the tree.
Step nine: To make the ornament, glue a piece of twine inside the top wooden stool before you attach it to the “tree”. As I mentioned earlier, my daughter has already claimed this as her own to decorate her Littlest Pet Shop house with.
