I make trees out of the pits & pieces. I use the thread spools as the tree trunk and a chop stick(cs). Snip a small hole in the center of the fabric, push it on to the cs, fill the cs up till you think it looks nice, glue it into the the spool. Iall so put a old button on the top as a "star". I adjust the length of the cs so they are not all the same height, group they in three's and you have a "forrest".
