Stick the pine cones on the wooden circles using strong glue.

Spread glue on both joining sides if you're using contact glue.

Press the glued parts firmly together for a while.

Allow the glue to dry completely before you continue.

Give each doll wings of maple helicopters.

When all the parts are glued onto the dolls, allow the glue to harden overnight.

Have lots of fun!
