So let's get started. The ball can be made from ordinary plastic bottles. To do this, I took 2 1.5 liter bottles and cut off the top. She cut the bottle with a stationery knife, and then cut it with scissors.
The first one is larger, the second one is smaller by 1 cm, so that one fits into the other.
Now we wrap them with tape.
Cut off the top of one of the bottles. This is what happened.
Take the paper and cut it into pieces 3*4 cm.
Fold the workpiece in half, and then bend the edges diagonally towards the center. Attach the ends of the workpiece with 2-sided tape.
Glue 4 petals at the base of the ball, thereby covering the top.
This is the first row. Glue the 2nd row lower, and one color - green. Make sure that the top of the petal of the second row is between the petals of the first.
Glue the 3rd row, consisting of yellow petals.
So we continue to glue the petals to the very bottom. This is what happened!
In the last row we form square petals or cut out leaves and glue them.
Now it's time to make a pendant for the Christmas ball.Make a hole in the center of the lid with a hot nail or soldering iron. We insert a thick thread with a bead into it
We make a knot on the outside of the lid, put the bead on, make another knot so that the bead does not fall out. Voila! The pendant is ready!
Imagine how happy the kids will be when they find sweets in the Christmas ball, because you can put small sweets, like candy canes, into the ball!
