Handmade Christmas Balls

This is a great piece to give as a gift or to make for yourself!

What you need:
-large clear Christmas balls
-scissors
-paper items you are wanting to cut

-All you do is cut the paper items you want to use into strips. You need to do then at least a quarter of an inch so they will fit into the Christmas ball.
-After you have your strips just twirl them around a pen to make then curl.
-Then place them one by one into the christmas ball. You can add as many as you want to make them look fuller if you would like.

I made this for myself! It is with the plane tickets, arm bands and other paper items I kept when my boyfriend, his family and I went on a trip to cancun. It was my first trip out of the country so I thought I was a perfect idea to have this keepsake to remember it by year after year.
