2. Using a hot glue gun, start attaching the roses to the ball. I noticed that if you put the hot glue directly on the Styrofoam it melted it a little bit. I first put the glue on the back of the rose and waited for 5 to 10 seconds.
3. Add a pin to the center of each flower {for extra support and because they are cute}.
4. I started with one flower and then surrounded it with 6. This pattern continues around the sphere. However it doesn’t need to be that precise. Another good idea would be to spray paint the Styrofoam before adding the roses since a little bit of color will show through.
One great thing about this project is that if you ever get tired of it, or don’t want to store it after fall is over, you can pull the flowers off and use them in many other projects.

Shelly @A Creative Space says
I am in love!! You can change out the colors to suit your mood! Be careful which type of spray paint you use… it can melt the styrofoam.
Maybe good ole craft paint? Thanks for the tutorial. ๐
