Those baubles can not only decorate your Christmas tree but would also be wonderful gifts.
You will need:
Smooth Styrofoam Ball
Fabric Scraps
Marker and papier
Scissors
Utility knife
Metal Nail File
Ribbons, Strings
Straight pins
Ready? Let’s start!
1st step
Mark north and south pole on your Smooth Foam Ball and connect poles with the lines which will divide your ball into fourths.
2nd step
Lay the paper over your ball and draw the pattern of the single section. It doesn’t have to be precise. Next draw the pattern on the fabric about 1cm out of the edge of the paper pattern and cut it out with the scissors.
3th step
Cut the ball with utility knife for about 1cm. Then tuck the fabric into the grooves with the metal nail file. Split the fabric evenly on the ball so the similar amount of fabric would be in the grooves. Trim off the excess fabric with the scissors.
4th step
Cover the fabrics connections with ribbon or the string. Fix it with the straight pins. Choose the simplest ones to hide it easily.
5th step
Cut a long piece of ribbon, fold it into half and make a knot in the distance of 5-7cm. Next tie the bow on the knot. Adjust the bow size to your ball and fix it with the straight pin to the north pole of your Christmas Tree Ornament.
