Gum Ball Decoration.

For the Christmas Party, Amanda and I set out to look for Gingerbread Decorations.
We couldn't really find any for the theme. So..we decided to make alot of them to stick within some type of budget.
From Walmart, we bought the same supplies for me and for her. We talked a little about what we could do with them...and then went home to make some decorations. Well, with the same supplies we came up with totally different ideas. I love when that happens. Just like the Girls. We give them supplies for a project and they all interpret it differently!
I went with these super simple Gum Balls.
We got a package of 2 Styrofoam Balls at Walmart.
I just painted them whatever colors I had at home and set them on top of a cup to dry.
 In the wrapping paper section of Winco, I found a roll of cellophane paper {this clear wrapping paper for packing baskets} for .88 cents!
I cut a piece of it and wrapped it around the dry "Gum Balls."
I had a bunch of ribbon at home already so I just tied the ends with Christmas Ribbon.
Instant Christmas Decorations...!
