Lady places floral staple into top of Styrofoam ball, creates the most awesome holiday decor yet

Christmas and traditions go hand in hand, but it's always refreshing to switch things up a bit. While sunflowers are not flowers typically found during the holidays, they offer a bright and cheerful look that easily adds color to any holiday-inspired room.
No gluing is required in this project. Simply poke the flowers, branches and berries into the Styrofoam ball to create a kissing ball. Once finished, hang the kissing ball in front of a window, inside a doorway or in a bare corner to dress up your space for the holidays.

Instructions
1. Place a floral staple into the top of the Styrofoam ball.
