Today I am proud to announce that I will be starting my 2014 Christmas series today !
And it's called, Indiakitty's Crafty Christmas !
My first post in this new series is, ...
DIY surprise ball !
It's so cute !
Just incase you didn't know, a surprise ball is a ball made from streamers, that has little prizes all through it that pop out as you open it . It's like your own personal pass the parcel. Lots of fun as you unravel your gift.
I see surprise balls as a really fun present and you can mix and match them for all holidays ! Even substitute Christmas crackers for these !
Here's what you will need !
- streamers
- scissors
- tape
- prizes
- pom poms
Here's a photo of some ideas of what to fill your surprise ball with !
Let's get started .
Pick out your biggest and best prize . Mine is a Sonny Angel , start to wrap tightly around the prize keeping in mind that this will be the last gift they
open .
Keep filling your surprise ball with fun gifts !
Flat prizes work best to maintain the round shape of the ball . You can also include jokes, stickers, lollies, sprinkles of confetti or lovely messages about the person you have made the surprise ball for.
And you're done !
Thanks for reading this week's post and hope you give this Christmasy DIY a
go !
See you next Sunday for another post !
What's the best surprise you have ever received ? Mine is my cat Nico who I received for my 8th Birthday.
