What do you think about adding a small amount of craft glue to the mixture? It may help it bond together and last longer!
P.S. I love this craft...they always smell so good!

Who'd have thought there'd be a use for old nipples? What a wonderful idea and so cute too!

How about adding an already tied piece of ribbon when you tie the loops of yarn together? You could string the tying piece of yarn through the ribbon then tie the yarn around the middle of looped yarn. Once th loops are cut, your hanger is already attached. :)

I think this is such a darling little thing to do with my kids. I can't wait to so this over the winter break! Good, good idea!!!

I've been looking for something my kids could make for their teachers and I found lots of ideas here! Thanks!

Thanks for the cool idea. Our favorite ornament is the TickleMe Plant Party Favor, which we paint and hang from our tree. The TickleMe Plant is the only plant that will close its leaves and lower its branches when tickled. You can get a TickleMe Plant Party Favor with paint set and the entire family can paint the party favors and then hang this festive and green ornament/gift from your tree. Just search TickleMe Plant Party Favor with paint set.
