Place 1.5” Foam BallsSmall Foam Balls, and DIY 3” Medium Foam Balls onto Bamboo Skewers.  Use a flat-bristled paint brush and acrylic paint to paint the foam balls.  Allow time for the paint to dry.  Putting the foam balls onto the bamboo skewers allows you to paint the entire foam ball all at once.  Place the bamboo skewer in vase or drinking glass while the paint dries to keep the paint, and your table, free of smudges.

Matching the paint colors to your yarn ensures that the white foam ball will not show through the yarn.  Use hot glue to adhere the tip of the matching yarn to a foam ball.  We used Primary YarnNeon Yarn as well as a few other colors we had laying around.   Wrap the painted balls with yarn and hot glue the end of the yarn to secure in place.
