Dress pattern ball

Last updated : April 10, 2016

After Christmas I decided to really change up the fireplace mantel from my standard color scheme. I usually stick with warm colors but was definitely ready for a change.

After a month of feeling as if something was missing I decided to make a decorative ball to set on top of my stoneware pitcher.

I used a 2.5 inch foam ball as my base. I cut a dress pattern into roughly 2 inch squares.

I stacked 2 in a crisscross manner then put a pencil into the center. I then dipped the tips into white glue and pressed the tip into the foam ball. I continued this until the entire ball was covered. 20150205_7433

I think it looks a bit like a dried hydrangea sitting on top.

    This is GORGEOUS. Beautiful. And great fireplace brick, too. The ball goes so well with it.
