At the end of every Christmas season, you will have the obligatory basket of nuts.  Someone has already picked out all the walnuts and they are the last thing standing; even after someone has finished off the toffee pennies in the Quality Streets tin. Why not use some of them up for a long lasting decoration?  You will need a couple of things:

A glue gun.

A small 12cm foam ring.

Nuts.

Simply glue the nuts around the form and then fill in the gaps with bits of knotted garden twine and springs of fir.  Add on a little bow and something to hang it up with.  A handy glue gun tip – you can blast those little annoying glue strings away with a hairdryer.
