DIY Decorative Balls

I have seen many a version of these decorative balls on the net that I got inspired to have my very own.  So off I went to buy my glue gun, glue sticks and styroballs from National Bookstore, and Beans from the grocery.




Materials:
Glue Gun
Glue Sticks
Styro Balls
Red, White & Mongo Beans



I started attaching the beans one at a time in circular fashion from the center, working my way through the top & bottom of the ball.
Warning:  Melted Glue Stick can be very HOT!
I lost count of the number of times I got mild burns from the exercise.

Tadah! Aren't they gorgeous ?! I simply love the texture.
Now, all I need is a really nice bowl to display my work of art.
