You can also do this same design on glass ones...but i just like the
dried look there is one more..if you wish to hear it.
well...its the same as the chilli
pepper but. minus the pepper..
add cinnamon stick you cut a cinnamon stick in a
small portion..then paint the santa face on it.
Also, this cinnamon stick can
be used as a pin..just glue a pin back
onto it.
One hint...if they are old sticks..to make them smell good
again..just use sand paper on them first..
You can also use dried okra and some of the wild weeds shaped
like pods.
