      My mom and I used to make these when I was a little girl in the 80’s and she would take them to sell at craft shows, I loved seeing this and will have to make a day for her, the kids and myself to make them this year. We used to dye our own string back then but I would definitely just buy colored string now lol. I thanks for reminding me of this memory!
