I made these topiary decorations to match my blue and silver Christmas theme.
I found these kissing balls (really, that's what they are called) at Micheal's during the after Thanksgiving sale. $3.49 each!!!
Huge savings compared to the foam balls that can run around $13 for this size.
Supplies:
2 kissing balls
2 small pots
floral foam
2 dowels 1/2 x 12inch
ribbon
spray paint
plastic ornaments (or the real ones)
embellishments
metallic or paper shreds
hot glue gun
I wrapped the dowels with ribbon and secured with hot glue. I made the bows at the same time so I was only covered in glitter once, but I was still a glittery mess during and after the project. Even left a glitter trail through the house.
Secured both with hot glue. The foam to the the bottom of the pot and add the dowel.
Added the metallic shreds to hide the foam.
I placed all the ornaments so they looked symmetrical-ish, then secured with hot glue.
I LOVE THEM!!!
And this year my tree is getting brighter blue lights!!!
My tree pictured below is from last year. So pretty but the paint on the lights is barely blue anymore. They look dull and pale blue.
Before
AND
After
I wanted BLUE BLUE.....REALLY BLUE .....SUPER BLUE!!
