A sweet little ornament or hanging decoration, this project requires only a few supplies and can look both modern and rustic depending on the beads and paper you choose.

Things you’ll need:
Cardstock
Wooden beads
Ribbon
Darning needle or large embroidery needle
Circle cutter or scissors

Things to do:
1. Using either a circle cutter or scissors and various cups for templates, cut 6-10 graduated circles, each about 1/2 inch smaller than the last.

2. Thread the darning needle with ribbon and knot it in a loop at one end. Thread through two beads and then press into the center of the smallest circle. Add a bead and then thread through the next smallest circle.

3. Continue in the pattern until you have used all the circles and then thread on four or five beads to create a trunk. Knot well at the end and trim the tail.
