Baker's Twine Tassel Tutorial

So I got this HUGE cone of Baker's Twine the other day. (What a terrific deal ... 3,360 yards for less than 20 bucks.) So the first thing I made are a few cute little tassels. Cute, don't you think?  
I took a small rock, about the size of my two fingers and wrapped the twine about 50 times.

Then I slipped the wrapped twine off the rock and tied it in the middle with another piece of twine. Super tight. As tight as you can.

Then I trimmed both ends.

Then I pinched everything together.

And then I wrapped and tied the top portion with another piece of twine.

And there you go. adorable little tassels to make and use in your art.

Happy crafting. :)
