Yarn Globes

Yarn globes give your kids a fun, decorative project to make, inside or
outside. If you prefer a round globe, you may substitute a rubber ball,
or styrofoam ball, for the balloons.

What you need:  balloons
                            colorful yarn
                            glue
                            paint brush
                            paper plates

• Blow up balloons, and tie off the ends.
• Cut yarn into lengths of 10 inches. (You'll need lots of pieces).
• Pour glue onto the paper plate so that there is a puddle large enough to dip the string in.
• Take a piece of yarn, drop it in the glue, move it around, so that it is  coated well,      
• Place the yarn around a side of the ballon
• Repeat this step until the balloon is fairly well covered with yarn.
• Allow the glue to dry.
• Pop the balloon and shake out pieces.
• Hang several together as a decoration, by tying a string to the upper part of the yarn
• or set on a table as a cool decoration.
