Decorative Ball- Shell

Christmas ornament and Pistachio nuts
I was in a big box store recently and window shopped in the home decorating section and came across some decorative balls. One of them caught my eye and then the idea popped in my head for me to try to make a decorative ball. This was my second attempt, the first ball was made of moss and this one...oh it's just nuts. 

Before

Glued nuts around ornament

After

Spray painted with glossy paint

Supplies: Christmas ornament, pistachio nuts, glue sticks and glue gun
Level of Difficulty: Easy

  2. Your decorative balls are beautiful! I can't believe you just used nuts. I like your faux coral too. I've never seen that...perfect for a sea themed party. Thanks for stopping by michellepaige.blogspot and commenting on the chocolate covered potato chips. Have you ever tried them? Heavenly!
