Here's how to make it:
Step 1 - Grab a broom and use a pair of scissors to carefully snip off the band that attaches the strands to its handle

You can go for a lighter or darker broom colour, or a mix of both depending on your room's aesthetic.
Step 2 - Once you've unravelled the attachment, continue to snip off any threads that hold the broom together
