Giant Jingle Bells
I made these out of exercise balls and hula hoops. Hung it on the outside of my house so hoping they will hold up!
Bought an exercise ball and hula hoop. Slid hula hoop halfway down. Had to separate it a little bit and then glue if it didn't fit, depending on size of the ball. Then spray-painted it, free handed the black part, sprayed with sealant and hung with big bows
Suggested materials:
- Hula hoop, exercise ball, metallic spray paint. Black craft paint. Spray sealant. (exercise ball, metallic spray paint. Black craft paint. Spray sealant.)

Lupita Cavazos-Garciaon Dec 1, 2019This is so creative and beautiful! Please tell us how you attached bows and hung them
Cathy Smithon Dec 21, 2019I just saw this wonderful project also. It looks like the bows are made out of that stiff mesh ribbon. I would attach them with glue and you could also make a hanger out of rope and attach with glue also.

Have a question about this project?
How did you put the bows on and hang them? Love this idea!
Wrapped with fishing line & hung off of a planter bracket.
What did you use as a hanger? How did you secure the hanger to the bells??
I used a plant bracket or shelf bracket and attached it to a wooden planter box on the outside of my house. Then I hung the bill with fishing line and wire.
Since I did these last year, not sure my memory is correct, but I probably used Krylon metallic spray paint and then for the black maybe an acrylic craft paint. And then I probably sprayed it with a polyurethane spray to coat it.
