Materials Needed
Instructions
Prepare the Plastic Cup
Cut the plastic cup to the desired height if needed. Make sure the edges are smooth and safe to handle.
1
Attach Popsicle Sticks to the Cup
Glue Popsicle sticks vertically around the outside of the plastic cup. Ensure each stick is evenly spaced and covers the surface completely. Hold each stick in place for a few seconds to let the glue set. Continue this process until the whole cup is covered.
2
Add Yarn Decoration
Choose your yarn colors. In the example, white and green yarn are used. Apply a small dot of glue to start attaching the yarn at the desired position. Wrap the yarn tightly around the Popsicle sticks, covering edges or creating a pattern. Once finished, secure the end with another dot of glue.
3
Create a Base for Stability
Line up several Popsicle sticks side by side to form a flat, square base. Use more Popsicle sticks to glue across the bottom for extra stability. - Let the base dry completely.
4
Attach the Cup to the Base
Apply glue to the bottom of the plastic cup and center it on the Popsicle stick base. Press gently and hold for a few seconds to make sure it sticks. Allow it to dry fully before use.
