Instructions:
1. Open up the ball and start with the first half. Tear the papers in many pieces of different sizes.
2. Apply glue to a small area inside the ball half. Place the first piece of paper on the glued area and brush glue over the paper. Apply glue to the ball again and then add the next piece of paper, overlapping a bit over the first piece. Brush glue on that piece of paper to cover it. Continue in this manner until the ball half is completely covered. Set aside to dry and do this procedure with the second ball half.
3. Once the second half is finished and both halves are completely dry, you can snap the ball closed. Match the plastic hanging ring. Tie a ribbon through that ring and knot.
Finished!
