תוכוס Use masking tape to wrap the bottom half of the popsicle

HERE’S WHAT YOU DO:

Rings stick.

Cut four strands of yarn 14” to 16” inches (this is longer
than you will need; however, it’s difficult to tie the yarn if it’s
too short) The yarn will represent the willow leaves.

n one group, tie the four strands of yarn just above the
masking tape line (near the middle of the popsicle stick).

Still using all four strands, make a bow, pulling it so that it’s
nice and tight.

Next, carefully pull the end of each bow so that you make
the “willow leaves” (תוברע) smaller.

Once the “willow leaves” (תוברע) are the size you like, play
with them a bit to accentuate the loops, which look like
leaves. After that, trim the yarn ends so that they are about
the same size as the “willow leaves” (תוברע). Then try to coax
them all over to the left side of the popsicle stick.

Wrap one end of a pipe cleaner once, around the popsicle
stick and above the yarn “willow leaves” (תוברע).

On the other end that is sticking out, wrap it around a pencil
or pen to create a spiral. This represents the myrtle leaves
(םיסדה).

Glue a yellow pom pom onto the craft stick under the yarn
and pipe cleaner. The pom pom represents the esrog.
HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED:
Finally, stick a key ring onto the back of your ready lulav.
