Then gently guide the garland around to compliment the flair of the cookies. Remember you can never have too much tinsel!
Remember to be precise. Ugly is not easy to accomplish, so you must work hard at the perfect turns and angles of each cookies.
Now start on one side and gentlu use that hot glue to secure your flair.
