This one is a styrofoam ball made into an ornament. I also made the angel on the right side out of beads and wire.

Since I don't like pool this idea seems much better than hitting them. Very Happy

Like bowling ball crafting but in miniature. I like it Jen. Are they any particular things to look out for when crafting cue balls rather than bowling balls?

Hey I like that idea - I really do. Mr. Green I wonder if I can lay my hands on some cue balls and give it a whirl myself Question Where did you get the holder for your balls from as it certainly looks good?

Jen, would you mind posting a close up of the cue balls, I really like that idea. I have several bowling balls and a couple of small balls a little bigger than the cue balls, but haven't had time to do anything with them.

I like this idea, and it is very cute. I think getting my hands on styrofoam will be easier than billiard balls. What did you make the stand out of that is holding the single ball? Wink

That is soo clever. It certainly looks much prettier than on a pool table.

I really love the very top one, with the polished stones in it. Great idea for cue balls, much more doable than bowling balls.

Thanks. I think the top stand is for candles. I found it at a yard sale, and the bottom stand is an ornament holder I bought at Dollar Tree.
