DIYing is a (jute) ball!

In an effort to rid myself of the all the Styrofoam balls, I covered another today. Well, actually two, but the second will have to wait. I used regular Elmer's glue on it and I think it will take at least 3 weeks to dry!

Yeah, I know.. big surprise, the other one involves dictionary pages!

Today, we have jute! Yes, it is a lot like the sisal one I made. But, I worked smarter not harder this time.... I started on the END! And, since jute is about 4 times bigger than sisal, this one only took me about 10 minutes.


I like this one better because the jute isn't as "hairy" as the sisal, so it is a bit neater.And, I like the dark brown.

I did the same coil pattern on this one too. I think I'll make some with more of a "ball of yarn" look too.


I just realized I'm at the end of the pics I took on this one :). But, the process was easy. I started on the end and worked my way to the middle and other side. Then, I cleaned it up by clipping and pulling off my hot glue stringies.

Sophie hasn't discovered them so they haven't been beaten up by her...YET. I believe that their time is limited. Nothing is safe around here from the crazy kitten!
