Pink Party Streamer Flower Vases

I decided to make cute foam ball vases for the baby shower and I am happy how they turned out. Again, not expensive to make, very easy. The only time consuming part is to roll the paper rosettes and glue them to the ball. But it was worthy. I love them so much that I am thinking of start making them for my Etsy Shop and Craft Fair booth.

Material:

Foam Ball (1)
Terracota Vase  (2)
Streamers (2)
Black, light pink and white paint ( craft or spray)
Hot glue gun
Sandpaper

First, I painted the vases with one coat of black paint, two coats of light pink paint and  two coats of white paint. Used the sandpaper to distress and reveal the layers. 
Then I started making rosettes ( this takes an awful lot of time, girls, but it is worthy:) with the streamer, attach them with the hot glue to the ball that is cut in half.

My original idea was to use green felt for the leaves , but did not  find them among my things. And I needed things done fast . I glanced over the table and I saw the doily  I had bought for another decor pice I planned to make for the (water bottles and fake gift boxes). They were perfect!
Glued them with the hot glue and that was it.
Just used the hot glue to attach the ball to the doily.

How girly!
It turned out better that I envisioned!
