Want to have you very own giant christmas ornaments like the ones you can find at 1251, Sixth Avenue in NYC during Christmas time?
Well, here is a DIY way to make look a like ones. Maybe not as giant but equally stunning.
Supplies & tools :
- Balloons (opaque and thick)
- Empty toilet paper rolls
- Aluminium foil paper
- Scissors
- Cotton rope
- Transparent scotch tape
- Glue
Instructions :
- Start by cutting the empty toilet paper rolls in 3 to 4 equal cylinders
- Wrap the cylinders with aluminium foil paper using transparent scotch to secure it. ( you can also paint them using silver spray paint for a nicer result )
- Inflate the balloons ( not to much to keep a nice round shape )
- Attach the rope to the end of the balloon and do a little loop
- slide the rope through the cylinder
- secure the cylinder to the balloon using some glue
Et voilà !! You now got your Big Christmas ornaments. Easy !
You can stack them together using some glue, tie them all together using a fishing line to make a nice banner or randomly display them in your home.
It is also possible to make GIANT one using Big balloons or by remplacing the balloons with a play ball and the toilet paper roll with a food container (see video)
