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.

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. I wonder if I can lay my hands on some cue balls and give it a whirl myself 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?

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.
