Place drops of hot glue where the horizontal cinnamon stick meets the “V” sticks and secure it in place.
On the “V” under the horizontal cinnamon stick, add drops of glue for the two eyes and press them in place.
Add a drop of glue where the point of the “V” meets and add a red pom pom for the nose.
