Pop Culture Yarn Ornaments
Pop Culture Yarn Ornaments
"Kids love to help out during the holidays, from shopping for presents to decorating the Christmas tree. And, what could be more fun than hanging up the ornaments you made? These pop-culture-themed yarn ornaments are easy to make, and tons of fun for the kids. With a little glue and imagination, you can make almost anything! Kids will love the sticky fun of dipping yarn into white glue while making favorite characters like Baby Yoda, Olaf, Wonder Woman and more. And, of course, you'll enjoy having a fun indoor activity to keep your children occupied while it's chilly outside."
