5. Fold the circle in half to make an indentation at the halfway point. Unfold and use the indentation as a guide to lay down a thin line of hot glue all the way across.

 
6. Lay a piece of pipe cleaner on top of the hot glue. Press down to secure. Repeat with all the circles.

 
7. While the glue dries, cut out little strips of white paper shorter than the diameter of the felt circles.
