How to make a garland of balls yourself?

Knowing in detail how to make a garland of balls with your own hands of a standard type, in the future you can take on the production of more complex, even combined compositions. The main thing is to follow certain instructions.

Be sure to purchase the following attributes:

  • Fishing line.
  • Balls.
  • Compressor or pump for inflating balls.
  • Scotch.
  • Strong rope.

Step-by-step manufacturing of ornaments from balls:

  • First you need to inflate balls. Naturally, it is better to do this with a pump or compressor, because it takes a lot of parts, and inflating them yourself is almost impossible.

Important! To create a construction from bundles of 4 balls per meter, you will need 15-40 balls, depending on their original size.

  • Let's start linking the balls. Tie four balls together. The most simple option is to inflate two balls and twist their tails with each other.

Important! If there will be difficulties, it is recommended to use a fishing line and a paper band.

  • We continue to compose the first link of our garland. You need to connect the tails of the balls in the center. After - it is necessary to center the link, namely to twist among themselves the components of the structure.
  • We link all the links together. If you are planning that the finished jewelry will be about 6 meters in length, then the basis can be created from the line. In larger designs, a thin rope is used.
  • Now we stretch the base between the two moving elements, for example, in the form of columns. Then it is necessary to consistently perform the simplest operations: to put on a bundle of four balls on the base and move to the center of the garland, after that twist the balls among themselves, between which, in fact, the rope or line was passed. Each pair is attached only separately.
  • All other bundles are performed using the same technology. But it is important to remember that they must be immediately attached to the foundation so that our constituent elements will not move anywhere. As a result, you will get an air spiral.
  • The ready garland can be set to the right place. It must be done reliably, so that it looks beautiful and does not become the cause of the accident.

Observe all the rules for making such designs, and the finished result will be beyond your expectations in its originality and appearance!
