Supplies:

– Styrofoam ornaments (I bought the glittery ones, but typically, you’re supposed to use the ones wrapped in silk thread. I just couldn’t find them anywhere.)

– Assorted beads

– Assorted sequins (didn’t realize this until later, but larger sequins would show up better and would be easier for kids to manipulate).

– Assorted colors and sizes of ribbon

– Pins (some with decorative heads on them and then you could probably do some without for the sequins)

– It’s helpful to use a container with dividers (even a cupcake pan) to organize the beads, pins, etc.

Directions:

– Help your child cut a length of ribbon to go around the ball.

– Load up a pin with some beads/sequins.

– Pin the ribbon to the top of the ball, wrap it around to the other side, and pin the top again.

– Rotate your ornament and wrap ribbon around to intersect the first ribbon.

– Pin the ribbons where they intersect to hold.

– You can add more ribbons and pins/beads/sequins as you desire to make it more ornate.

Have fun and Happy Holidays!!
