Lollipop ornament
Total Time: 30 minutes
Step 1: Take threads of different colors
First measure the threads to make the lollipop. Cut the red and white threads to a length of about 2 meters when folded twice.
Step 2: Twist the thread
Put a drop on a thick sheet of paper. Fix the tips of the red and white threads, folded in half, to each other.
Step 3: Use PVA glue
You are going to make a lollipop out of twisted threads that will be glued to thick paper. Start by applying PVA glue around the circumference.
Step 4: Spin the threads in a circle
Twist the red and white threads together. Then place them in a circle on a piece of paper. The paper should be covered with glue.
Step 5: Finish twisting the threads in a circle
Gradually apply the glue around the circle and continue to form your candy from the threads.
Step 6: Fix the the thread ends
Create the desired diameter of the craft. Hide the ends of the threads under the main circle and glue them.
Step 7: Apply the scissors
Wait for the glue to dry. Then carefully cut out the piece of candy in a circle with scissors.
Step 8: Take a wooden skewer
Make another of the same blank out of thread. Then fix it to a stick. Fix a wooden skewer to the wrong side of a piece.
Step 9: Connect the two pieces
Apply glue to one part of the lollipop and attach the second part. You should get a yarn lollipop similar to the one in the photo.
