Instructions:
- Cut pieces of foil to fit around the cones, one 4” ball and the 3” ball. Wrap foam shapes and glue edges of foil to secure in place.
- Embellish the foil cones and balls with the metallic ribbons, silver studs and thumbtacks.
- Paint the remaining 4” ball silver and let dry. Insert a toothpick into the ball for a handle while painting. Glue the thumbtacks side by side around the ball to completely cover.
- Glue the square studs side by side around the cube to completely cover. Bend in the prongs from the studs at the corners of the cube to allow the studs to sit flush against each other.
