Since I can never work on just one project at once I started another one recently. Which leaves me currently working on about six pieces of art. This is just something fun I wanted to try out to lighten up my room. I found this idea a while ago, but I never really got to it. These are yarn spheres, or at least that's what I call them. In order to make them you take a balloon, trying to get it to be more sphere than egg shape and then make a solution of water, glue and if you want cornstarch to make it to be a consistency of watery paint and dip string in it and wrap it around the balloon. It is also a good idea to cover the balloon in something slippery like Vaseline so that when the yarn dries you can pop the balloon and the yarn won't stick to it. The images above I got from the web, not my creation. The ones I'm making aren't finished yet. If my description isn't specific enough on how to make them here are some links:

if you like these than give it a try too. I want to make some and hang them from my ceiling.
thanks for reading,
