What do you attach the yo yo's with?

Hi Patrick- you put them onto a cereal box covered in fabric??
If yes, how do you attach them? Glue???
I used to live in Syracuse and am from Utica :D I lived right near the Wegman's in Dewitt.

You can use glue but I don't like the mess. I sew them together and just go around in a circle adjusting as you go. In the beginning, I pinnned the yo-yos onto the carboard to get the idea, then used the finished product as a template for the others. It's easier than it looks.

Do you miss Syracuse?

Love it ! I would like to know what was used as a base too.

I don't use a yo yo maker I just cut the circle and go from there.

Fantastic Idea for the Yoyo's... Gives us something to do in the evening in front of the TV. Yours looks so cute.

Great Christmas idea. Very cute.

Well I keep a variety of items around the house so I always have something to work with, mostly cardboard and plastic coffee can tops so I have a template. I sew them together sometimes three or four across then just go around in a circle, keeping an eye on detail.
