My Disney Christmas wreath

Danauk....forgot to ask...What kind of glue did you use to glue the ears onto the heads? And are those glass or plastic balls that they are made out of?
I really really like this and since I am doing a Disney tree they will make perfect fillers and I can use them to decorate my kitchen(done Mickey style) the rest of the year. Again...GREAT JOB!

I used a hot glue gun which worked perfectly as it dried in 30 seconds and they are stuck solid! I just bought the cheapest baubles from my supermarket (not sure what they were made out of but they were really cheap!!)

One tip though (and I learned this from the Disney Christmas specialists on my back stage tour last christmas), before you put the decorations on take the bit with the hoop on the bauble that you put the thread through off and hot glue gun this back on. This way the decoration will never fall off it's hanging. I did this and it makes the whole attaching the decoration more secure (I also do this to all new baubles I get now and I noticed that WDW do this before they sell baubles in their shop!!!)

Thanks for the tips Danauk. That is a good idea about glueing the tops on. I have some older/antiquey glass balls that are my problem children so that would work great.

**NOTE TO SELF...find glue gun and get busy making Mickey balls B4 Thursday.. :teeth:
