They are so cute. I have never made a yo yo but I may have to try them.

At a guess, I would think there are 5 different sizes, and four or five of each. Just about right for the Yo Yo makers I have! For those of you who haven't made any, those little gadgets make making them very simple and easy. You could make loads if you were a passenger in a car, or on a bus/train, to while away the journey.

Yes, I think they ARE tree branches. And the yoyo's look like graded sizes to me too. I really like the burlap look to some of them. I have tons of Christmas scraps, although I haven't made a yoyo since I was about 12 years old. . . . ummmmm thinking of office gifts. . .

How do you make YoYo's? I have seen them, but never really investigated. That would be a nice gift. I love the tree!
