  • Patent number: 6902086
    Abstract: An apparatus and associated method for constructing decorative arrangements includes a disc member having a plurality of perforations arranged in a pattern formed therein and a tool for inserting fabricating material into selected ones of the plurality of perforations formed in the disc member. An end of the tool is used to forcibly inserting an end of the fabricating material through a first perforation formed in the disc member. Markings on an intermediate section of the tool are used to measure a selected length of the fabricating material. The other end of the selected length is then inserted into a second perforation formed in the disc member to form a loop of fabricating material attached to the disc member. This process is then repeated using additional perforations, thereby adding additional loops of the fabricating material to the disc member, until construction of the decorative arrangement is completed.
