All I needed to do was add an eye hook, which I already had in my handy-dandy picture-hanging kit at home (that I probably had also gotten from the Dollar Tree). I just used my needle-nose pliers to screw the eye hook in to the tops of the trucks.
Then I used some gold cord from my craft bag stash to tie on a "hanger".
Viola' !

Those are great! I'm going to have to run into Dollar Tree this week and see if ours still has them. Next year I would like to have a fire themed tree in our dining room, and this would be great filler ornaments!
I remembered how I got this idea..I had been looking online for an ornament for the Fire Wives ornament exchange, and I saw on etsy where someone had screwed eye hooks into the little plastic firefighter figures, you know like the little army men, except they're firefighters.
So I was looking for those, but got side tracked by these wooden toys, lol!
The plastic firefighters might make good filler ornaments. I'm pretty sure you can get a bag of like 25 or 50 for $1.00.
