Assembly (broom)

Let us now assembly the broom.

1. Get 3.5 cm long aluminum wire.
2. Bend one end of the wire.
3. Insert the other end of the wire in the middle base of the broom head.
4. Put some glue around the base of the broom head to secure it around the wire.
5. Apply glue on the other end of the aluminum wire. It wil serve as the handle of the broom.
6. Get a darker shade of brown yarn, and wrap it around the broom handle. I wrapped mine around the handle twice to make the handle thicker.
7. Get the same color of yarn as what you have used for the broom head, and wrap it around the top portion of the broom head.
8. You have finished making the broom!
