These balls made of lace paper are so light that they can also hang wonderfully in your Christmas tree. The papers are inked with stamping ink and sewn together with glitter cord. Christmas napkin motifs round off the nostalgic look.
Here's how it works
Cut from cardboard or solid Paper circles with a diameter of 6 cm and cover the middle of the lace paper. Then wipe petrol-blue and stone-grey stamping ink over the edges with a paper towel on both sides to emphasize the pattern. Then remove the ink from Paper the middle.
For each bauble you now place three lace papers on top of each other and mark a diameter on the top one. Along this line, punch small holes with the punching pliers at intervals of approx. 5 mm, through which you then sew the three papers firmly together with the silver cord. Leave enough Cord on both sides for hanging and further decoration. Then fan out the papers evenly.
Cut from the Napkins different circular motifs with a diameter of 6 cm. Remove the two white layers of paper and stick the printed paper layer in the middle Napkin varnish of the white surface. After drying, thread various beads above and below the paper balls and tie a loop in the silver cord to hang the balls on.
