HOW TO:

  1. Unpeel the covering of the Phoomph and place 1 Charm Fabric Square on the sticky side. Repeat for other Charm Fabric Square on the other sticky side of your Phoomph, directly underneath.
  2. Cut Phoomph to size.
  3. Using your metal wire or strong thread, start weaving around the ends of your twigs, going around and around each twig to secure them together.
  4. Repeat until you have your desired boat width.
  5. Repeat this weaving process in the middle of the boat, this will help really secure the twigs together and help it to become less ‘floppy’.
  6. In the middle of the boat, place a longer twig directly in between 2 of your twigs, sticking up. Secure around the top and bottom with your wire.
  7. Loop one more wire weaving around the very end of your twigs. You will now have 3 rows of wire across the entire width of your bottom, the top, middle, and bottom.
  8. Using your scissors or a hole puncher, punch 2 holes in the top and bottom center of your Fabric Square.
  9. Push the Fabric Square holes through the twig that stands up in the middle, and you are done!
