How To Make The Stool

What you need: Piece of strong cardboard, fabric (fabric that matches the curtains will look pretty) and thread, a wooden barbecue stick and some cotton wool.

Cut a circle out of the cardboard. Cut a larger circle out of the fabric. Stitch round the edge of the fabric but leave the ends of the threads free so you can tighten the thread.

Place a small amount of cotton wool on the back of the fabric, then place the cardboard circle on top of the cotton wool.

Tighten the thread so that the edges of the fabric close over the cotton wool and cardboard. Tie the ends of the thread together and cut off the extra thread.

Cut four short pieces from the barbecue stick to use as legs for the stool. Glue them onto the cardboard and let dry.

Put the stool onto the floor of the stand and place your teddy bear on it.
