Directions 1. Cut out strips of tissue paper that are long and wide enough to wrap around the Styrofoam balls  2. Wrap the tissue paper around the balls and glue into place at the top and bottom with the rubber-based glue  3. Wind the gold cord around each ball to make whatever pattern you want. Use the dressmakers' pins to invisibly secure it, gluing the pin in place to prevent it falling out accidentally  4. Embellish further using fancy braid. Here the braid overlaps alternate strands of the cord, but there are many other ways in which you can use it.
