Imagine walking into a room where snow-kissed globes hang gently, filled with pinecones, frosted branches, and soft white blooms.

They feel like ornaments from a winter wonderland, only larger and more dramatic.

Plus, these hanging pieces create dimension, catching your eye from every angle, and the cascading beads and ribbons add a touch of movement.

Making them becomes its own little ritual: gathering textures, layering greenery, and letting your imagination play.

Once in place, they instantly shift the atmosphere, suddenly, your home feels like a winter ballroom where every detail whispers Christmas magic.

Materials Needed

• 2-3 large foam craft balls (8”-10” diameter)
• White textured spray paint or plaster coating
• Artificial pine sprigs (10-12 small pieces)
• 1-2 faux pinecones (medium size, frosted or glittered)
• Artificial flowers (white poinsettias or roses, 6-8 blooms)
• Gold and silver accent picks (leaves, berries, or twigs)
• Hot glue gun and glue sticks
• Clear beaded garlands or crystal strands (-3 ft)
• Ribbon or twine (2-3 ft per globe)
• Craft knife and scissors

Step-by-step Guide

Step 1: Begin by coating your foam balls with textured spray paint or plaster to give them that frosted snow look. Let them dry completely before moving on.

Step 2: Cut a small, flat surface on the top of each globe using a craft knife. This creates a stable base for your arrangement.

Step 3: Start layering in artificial greenery, pine sprigs, and faux flowers. Then angle some outward so the arrangement feels full and natural, not too compact.

Step 4: Add larger accents like pinecones or big faux ornaments near the center, then tuck in golden leaves or silver berry picks for sparkle.

Step 5: For movement and elegance, attach strands of clear beads or crystal garlands to the bottom. These will catch the light and shimmer beautifully.

Step 6: Secure a strong ribbon or twine into the top of the globe using hot glue. Tie it into a loop for hanging.

Step 7: Hang your globes at staggered heights, either indoors by a window or outside under a porch roof.

Now you can step back and adjust the greenery until each globe feels balanced and lush.

Tip:

For an extra frosty glow, place a battery-operated LED tea light inside the foam ball before sealing. The soft illumination makes the globe sparkle at night.
