Hey Punksters! This week Punky Sprouts is having a blog
hop to celebrate 2012 and ring in 2013. Each member of the Design Team are showing you some fun projects for your party or just for fun! Hop along with us, leaving comments at each blog to enter to win a great
Punky Prize Pack! You could win an album
of your choice along with Punky embellishments and a Lindy’s mist!
Here is my project using Punky Sprouts embellishments! It is super easy and a fun way to make a decorative ornament to hang for your party!
Next, glue dot 4 of the parchment blossoms to the center of the puckered Lacy Blossom of the same size. Layer them right on top of each other. In the pictures, I am using the small doilies and the small parchment blossoms.
Begin to pinch and scrunch each Parchment piece pulling up and toward center.
When all 4 layers are pinched and puckered, you can "fluff" them up with your fingers to make the ornament more like half of a ball. Repeat these steps for the other half of the ball!
When you have both sides complete, join them back to back threading your twine between them. I placed mine with large at top in descending order. I used a large zot on the back of each half and layed the twine on the zot to make sure it was secure and centered. Leave enough twine at the top to loop for hanging and enough twine at the bottom to dangle your beads and bling! When you have them all secure, spritz with Glitz Spritz (by Lindy's) and apply more glitter if desired.
String beads or any bling you choose to the bottom and hang! Another idea would be to continue stringing together to make a garland...!
I hope you like this idea and run with it! These "half balls" also make great package decorations in place of a traditional bow.
