You will need 4 pieces of fishing line about 5 feet in length.

Hammer a small nail to one of the wooden feet. Go about 1/2 way in.

Tie a good knot in the fishing line, and secure to the nail. Hammer the rest of the nail so it bends over and is firmly against the wood.

Repeat with the other foot.

Using a straight pin with a T top, tie a knot in another piece of fishing line, and secure it around the pin. Put some hot on the top of the head near the edge of the face and push the pin firmly down in with the hard plastic so you don't burn yourself like I did.....ow.

The last piece of fishing line gets secured to the middle of the top of the styrofoam body, just like it was to the top of the head.
