It’s all about DIY today and boy have I got some fun cake toppers for you.
Look, I like balls. I like them so much that I made my own version of “Cake Ball’s.” I know you are probably shaking your head right about now. If you are not I will for you.
The other night I was sitting in my studio thinking of cute things to add to the top of a cake. The first things that came to my mind was BALLS.
Let’s get started.
Wooden Sticks | Small Christmas Ornaments | Brushes | Paint | Glue Gun | Bakers Twine
The first thing you will do is paint the paint sticks white. I am using a normal crafting brush for this step.
Next you will get this snazzy little Martha Stewart paint brush. It’s like two brushes in one!
I grabbed these “balls” last year at Tar-Jay and they are perfect. P.S. Make sure you take the tip off of the ornament. Paint that sucker all black. I had to put about 3 coats on them before I was happy.
This is how they will turn out. I am actually really shocked at how shiny they became after they were completely dry.
When they are done I put a little dab of hot glue on the tip of wooden stick and stuck it inside the ornament. Just hold it for a second till it’s dry.
Put a little hot glue around the tip of ornament then wrap twine around it.
VOILA!
I am so happy with the way they turned out! I know that I did them black but you could do them pink, purple or just leave them the color of the ornament.
Another idea is to do different size ornaments.
I hope you enjoyed this post! Make sure to have fun with your balls…
