So, here's another idea I saw, stole and tried. You know those decorative balls people have that they put in a bowl or basket? Well, make some of your own!
I wanted some for my kitchen. I'm not going to have any more room in my kitchen after I do all these! Black and white is so fun!
First ...find some napkins of the design you like. I found these at target! So cute, I bought the black and the white ones!

Next...trim off all the black around the design.

Take Mod Podge and glue all around a styrofoam ball. Then wrap the napkin around it.

Now....for the ends, do the same thing with parts of another napkin. It looks funny now, but trust me, it all turns out.

Then mod podge all over 1/2 of it, and place on a paper plate....you don't want it sticking to the plate

Repeat for all the balls you want.
My white napkins were smaller, so I had more space to fill

Starting my white ones!

Let them dry for about 10 mins, and then apply the mod podge to other sides. I rotated them every 10 mins until they weren't sticky anymore.

Here they are all completed!
I even put some black and white ribbon around my new bowl

And there you go! Decorative balls! Or whatever they are called!

Can you make these scented? Like use orange or red for fall and make them cinnamon scented?
For me, it has to be pretty AND functional. And since my youngest boy rips the scent smellers outa the wall, and my oldest boy blows out the candles or put things IN the candles....scented balls are my last resort!
