Instructions
- Inflate the balloon to a size you desire for your hanging light. Tie it securely, ensuring it won’t deflate during the crafting process.
- Mix equal parts of craft glue and water in a bowl to help the yarn adhere better.
- Measure and cut several lengths of black yarn, aiming for at least 50 strands, each about 3-4 feet long.
- Dip each strand of yarn into the glue mixture and begin wrapping it around the balloon, leaving a space for the opening where the lights will go.
- Allow it to dry completely; this may take a couple of hours or even overnight.
- Pop the balloon carefully, keeping the yarn shape intact.
- Gently squeeze the sides of your yarn ball to create an opening for the LED string lights and insert them inside.
- Find a suitable spot in your home to hang your creation.
Notes
Use various colors of yarn for customization, and ensure the LED lights are safe for enclosed spaces.
