DIY centerpieces and string balls:) Pics!

I love these!! These will look amazing at your winery venue

Thanks a ton! I can't wait to take them out there to see what they look like on the tables.

Love it! Very good idea!

I love it!! I am also going to try and use the string balls, just not sure where or how!

I LOVE the string balls how do you do them?

Ok, so you go buy 20 bottles of wine & I'll help you drink it so you can have the corks!

I love them!!!! Was thinking that I needed something interesting to hang for lighting - you found a GREAT idea!!!

What winery are you getting married at? Just wondering bc I live in Lubbock and we have tons of them here!

I'm loving the string balls as well! How do you make them?

Cork balls

Instructions

things you'll need:

Corks

2-inch foam ball

Hot glue gun

Hot glue stick

1/4-inch wide ribbon

Scissors

Thumbtack

1. Insert a hot glue stick into a hot glue gun, and plug it in.

2. Allow the hot glue gun to heat up for five minutes.

3. Squeeze hot glue over the surface of a two-inch foam ball.

4. Place the corks over the hot-glued ball, setting each cork upright so that only the tip is attached to the ball. Fill the entire ball with corks.

5. Cut a 1/4-inch wide ribbon to a length of 8 inches.

6. Attach the ribbon onto the cork ball using a flat thumbtack. You can now hang up the cork ball for display.

Thank ya much Hayley C! I think I want to make some now and maybe incorporate them into my centerpieces or decor somehow.. this is such a cool idea!

Wow, very nice!!

I love it! Both are super cute!

String balls were postponed to be made on Wednesday due to this windy Texas weather I want to do them out in our garage so they can dry and we won't have a mess inside!

We are getting married at Chapel in the Vineyard... it is in Christoval, which is about 15-20 minutes outside of San Angelo.

I had not really thought of any cute DIY ideas until I came across these and the websites they were on. They are going to be soooo much cheaper than renting the lanterns from the venue- $100! Which I think is a little much considering they are in the back of the chapel and only need to be moved like 20 feet...lol

Valerie C- Are you sure the hot glue won't melt the foam ball? I was worried about that...
