Things required are satin fabric scraps, styrofoam ball or eggs, beads, wire clippers, glue, 1 1/4" straight pins, corsage pins with pearl or gold heads, velvet ribbons and gold braids.
Wrap the balls with fabric scraps and seal them up neatly with glue. Decorate the balls by winding the ribbon or golden braids in such a way so as to divide the ball into quarters. Hold the ribbon in place by anchoring it with pins or pins pushed through beads. Arrange the beads at the top to form a slightly raised crown by using glue and pin firmly with corsage pins. Make a crown at the bottom too. Fill in the blank spaces with multicolored beads and add a Victorian charm to hang from the bottom. Add a loop of ribbon or braid for hanging from the mantelpiece or the tree.
