a) Take a X-ACTO or similar craft knife and cut a notch about one centimeter or so from the tip (the side farthest from the golf ball) of whichever tee you wish to be the top.
b) Aquire some sewing thread (also called floss -- not the stuff for your teeth) and tie a nice, tight knot around that notch from step 'a.' P'raps double it around to ensure it's tight. Make sure there's one to three inches left over, depending on how far from the branch you want it to hang.
c) Bend one side of a paperclip so that it can fit over the branch of a tree. Tie the thread (or floss, if you prefer) around the other, still coiled side of the paperclip.
d) Place the finished ornament onto a tree branch.
e) Be merry.
