DIY Sola Pomanders *Pic*

These are awesome! nice work!

I think they're very pretty, but I'm not sure I know what these are supposed to be? Do you have an inspiration picture?

@Jessie- They are pomander balls. It's just the name of it. Basically a bunch of flowers in a ball shape. Can be used to be hung or can sit it on top of a vase, etc. Inspiration pictures would look exactly the same Best thing to do is Google it and you can find out exactly what they are..but basically easiest and most simplest definition is flowers in a ball shape. They are attached to a styrofoam ball. Florists also make them with fresh flowers.

Those are beautiful!

Love them! Do you have instructions?!

@FutureMrsH- All you need is a styrofoam ball, hot glue gun, ribbon, straight pins, and whatever type of fake flowers you plan on using

1. Pick a size for your styrofoam ball. Keep in mind the ball will expand 2 inches on each side once all the flowers are on. So keep this in mind. The bigger the ball, the more flowers you'll need to use.

2. Decide on the length you want them to hang and cut your ribbon to that length.

3. Hot glue your ribbon to the center of the ball. Hot glue the end pieces down, then put a few straight pins in for extra support.

4. Arrange your flowers in any way you'd like. Just hot glue them. It's best to start at the top and work your way down. Make sure you hold the flowers in place for at least 12 seconds or so otherwise they will slide as you move around to do your next flower. Try to also get the flowers as close together as you can so as much styrofoam is hidden as possible.

If you want, add any other decor to them; brooches, butterflies, pearl beads, etc.

Oh I thought you were leaving them on those white pole stand things, hence my confusion.

@Jessie- Yes they will be staying on the white poles. The white poles are shepherd hooks and you can hang just about anything from them. They will be lining the aisle.
