Now to salve a little glue the remained ends of a wire. To insert them into berries as sticks and cherries grow. To pass residuals of a thread in a needle. Now we sew a stick to berry through. To return to a stick. Once again a thread around a stick. Doing a loop. We capture a stick again. Again to stitch berry through. To return to a stick. To repeat two times. To fix. To cut off thread.

Now it is possible to sew berries.

Other option of a hairpin needs to be pasted to the base. But at first it is better to sew our berries to "branch".

Now hairpins can be worn on a blouse, or in hair. Or as you will invent still.
