Instructions
- When you remove the yo-yo maker from the package, it will have a set of instructions. They are super simple to follow and you will be making fabric yo-yos in no time.
- Put the yo-yo maker onto your fabric (pinching the fabric in between). Make sure the back of the fabric is facing correctly.
- Next, cut around your fabric leaving a seam allowance.
- Begin sewing according to the package directions. The stitch is simple and you go all the way around the yo-yo maker.
- As you stitch, you should always be inside of one of those holes.
- Then, just unsnap the two pieces of the yo-yo maker and pull your string taught. A couple of knots later, you have a yo-yo.
- Wrap your ribbon around your candle sleeves and hot glue to secure in the back. Add yo-yos to the front of the wrap with hot glue.
