The beading is the most creative part of this pattern. I beaded all my ornaments differently, making up the patterns as I went along. The process described below can be used to create any design you desire.

Thread your beading needle (I used a size 10 sharp needle) with a brown embroidery thread to match your wool and tie a small knot at the end.

A Note: Valdani embroidery thread barely fits into a size 10 sharp, so you might need a needle threader for this. You could also use a beading needle and beading thread but I liked how well the Valdani thread matched my base colors.

Pull the needle through one side of the star to the other. Let the knotted end of the thread pop through the first layer of wool but not come out the other side, thus hiding your knot.

Thread one bead onto your needle and then stick your needle right next to where it came out. 

Pull your needle through the stuffing (but not through to the other side) to the next spot where you’d like to place a bead and pull your thread. The bead should pop into place. Repeat in whatever pattern you like.
