Decor for the New Year!

I've been thinking about some fun and easy decor I could make for my completely white apartment. I saw on TipJunkie a cool tutorial for a felt garland and then I had an idea for a kissing ball. Here are the pics and materials list.

Garland:

9 colors of felt cut into whatever shapes you like. Mine are slightly ovally.
Clear thread, I found mine at Walmart.
Needle or sewing machine. I used my sewing machine. Much faster
Sew down the middle of each shape. Attach the next shape just before you get to the end of the previous shape. I hope that makes sense. Enjoy!


Kissing Ball:

4" styrofoam ball
4-5 bags of Glitter pompoms (walmart)
Glue Gun
Long piece of yarn.
Tie the yarn around the ball securely. Proceed to randomly glue the pompoms all over the place.
