    These delicate ornaments don't have to be used just for Christmas, I plan on keeping these above my bed all year round!
    What I Used:
    String/Twine
    PVA Glue (Mixed with water)
    Balloons
    Plastic Bowl
    Silver/Grey Spray Paint (Optional)
    Blue Tac
    Music: 'Wish Background' by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)

    It's actually a lot less messy if you wrap the ball on with dry string and then brush the mod podge over it and let it dry before popping the balloon

    @lewisharris3400 5 лет назад

    I am not a balloon expert, so forgive my misuse of terminology here, but if anyone is having trouble blowing up their balloons spherically a trick I found was to pinch the balloon very far down on its stem, and try to force air into where you imagine the top of the sphere to be as you blow. I ended up getting my balloons a lot rounder this way rather than sausage shapes or weird distorted teardrops..
