How to Make Christmas Balls

Make a ball by crumpling scratch paper or newspaper tightly (around 3 inch diameter).

Cut red cloth of 13" x 13".

Wrap cloth around the paper ball, not so tight - make sure it is smooth, not crumpled outside.

Tie with ribbon on top and then hang 2-3 inches from the holly. Hang these 1 foot apart in different heights on the holly.

If you don't have any holly, grab some branches or twigs lying about outside your home and put into a can full of smooth stones. You can then hang the Christmas balls on the branches and decorate with Christmas lights to complete the look!
