Making a Surprise Ball

i stumbled upon surprise balls
through the website i found
for the Munari Mobile

miekewillems - surprise ball

it looks like the ones from kiosk
in New York aren't available anymore
but kiosk is still pretty cool
kioskkiosk - main page

so i decided to make a surprise ball
for my mother in law for her xmas present
she and i have very close birthdays
and we both love little toys and
little things and fake food

at first i bought crepe paper streamers
but then i realized that people were using
tissue paper cut into ribbons
so i went back and bought
xmas themed tissue paper
and some thin ribbon for
the finishing touches

i bought some small things
online at this store
tinythingsarecute

i spent about $35US on ten items for the ball














these are the tutorials i will reference
notmartha
i don't like the look of her end result
honestlywtf
this one is beautiful

this is my finished product
