The ball of paper can be used as a New Year's decoration on the Christmas tree, the layout of the planets of the solar system, etc. Get a bulk ball from paper is completely simple. At the manufacture of such crafts attract children, because the process of creating a ball is very interesting.

  • inflatable ball - 1 pc.;
  • pVA glue - 200 ml.;
  • loose paper A4 - 10-20 sheets;
  • tassels for paints with thick bristles.

The number of sheets is taken approximately, it depends on the volume of the future ball.

  • 2 Step - sheets of paper cut into small pieces (5 * 6 cm.);

  • 4 Step - a piece of paper generously lubricate with glue and glue the ball (placing the ball paper completely, leaving a small plot near the "tail" balloon);
  • 5 step - give the first layer to dry out (to speed up the process, we recommend using the dryer dryer);
  • 6 step - impose a second layer of paper, also lubricated with glue (Purchase the ball completely, there should be no gaps between pieces of paper, try not to make folds so that the finished ball turned out to be smooth to the touch);
  • 7 step - repeat the drying procedure and impose a third layer of paper, on top of the whole paper ball generously lubricate with glue;
  • 8 step - leave the ball in a warm place (in the heating season - near the battery) to complete drying (approximately 24 hours);
  • 9 step - the ball after drying should be harsh to the touch, be sure to check whether the paper dried completely (even because of a very small portion of fresh glue, the bulk ball may not work);
  • 10 Step - on the remaining section without paper, pierce the air ball and get it (the ball dried inside with a hair dryer, also hot air will help to return the shape of the finished figure if it is deformed).

You can regulate the size of the desired ball yourself, it is enough to make more or smaller circles. The more you will use semicircles, the ball will look more spectacular.

To create masterpieces with your own hands, we recommend picking up a good quality paper that it does not span from a large amount of glue. Also, do not buy too dense paper, make crafts from it will be much harder. The perfect option is the usual office paper. It is suitable for creating modules for origami, perfectly dying in painting and behaves well with all kinds of glue.
