How to Make



- Place the reel of tape onto a sheet of red card and draw around the inside with a pencil, then cut this circle out. Do the same on a sheet of yellow paper, however before cutting it out, draw a semi circle shape at four points around the edge of the circle.
- Draw the Chinese symbol for good luck onto the front of the red circle with a black deco pen.
- Cover the circular part of the yellow shape with double sided tape. Then cut a long strip of yellow wool and stick it around the edge of the circle creating loops as you go.
- Stick a few more pieces of double sided tape to the top of the wool, then stick the red circle on top.
- Loop some red wool around your fingers several times and tie together with some yellow wool. Trim the ends so they are no longer looped to create a tassel. Keep one long strand of red wool attached to the tassel.
- Attach the tassel to the bottom of the charm, and loop the end of the wool at the top for the charm to hang from.
