How to make it: (See photos below)
-Drill a hole through the center of each ball. It’s helpful to drill a large hole in a scrap piece of wood for the ball to sit in so it will be easier to drill a straight hole.
-Paint as desired.
-Cut a 8″ piece of embroidery thread and put it through one end of the skein.
-Cut a 3″ piece of thread and wrap around right below the top of the thread. Tie a knot tightly and trim ends.
-Cut thread ends to desired length. (You can use the other end of the skein to repeat the same process.)
-Use embroidery needle to feed the ends of the 8″ thread up through the wooden ball.
-Tie a knot in the top of the 8″ piece of thread and trim ends.
