Assembling:
To make the mouth:
Take a piece of black thread about 1.5 - 2 cm long and apply
glue to it.
Wait 30-40 seconds for the glue to dry.
Roll the thread between your fingers to spread the glue
evenly and bond all the fibers together so that they don’t
stick out.
Glue this piece of thread into a wave shape on the light
brown part of the cup, between rounds 14-15.
Cut off the parts that extend beyond the 14th and 15th rows.
Place the keychain on the top of the cover.
