- House Therapy Staging Co. presents a DIY video on how to make a twine globe. Some people may refer these awesome home décor pieces as yarn globes, rope lanterns or twine spheres, but it doesn't really matter because all point to a super chic accessory that you can add to your home today! Here are the supplies I used:
- roll of jute (you can also use twin, cotton yarn)

- Elmer's glue (about 12 oz.)

- plastic blown up bouncy ball (I used a large one from Walmart). Usually can find these types of balls at Target or sometimes CVS. They are usually located at the end of an aisle in a cage, all together.
- Lighting swag kit

- two large plastic garbage bags
- 10oz of water
- two large bowls
- scissors
- electrical plate cover
- light bulb
I love that you said “righty tighty.” So cute! Love the project!
I just want to add a little something to what she said about NOT TAPING A HOLE FOR YOUR LIGHT SOURSE/SWAG TO GO THROUGH! It will totally work if you do it her way, (obviously, look at the absolutely beautiful end result) and it will be much easier because it does prove a bit more difficult to maintain a perfect hole through tye wrapping process. However, those loose strings that she ended up having to hot glue were actually caused by forcing the yarn into that hole shape at the end. Totally not a big deal, super quick and easy fix but that is whitout a doubt the reason for those loose sttings. I just wanted to note that here for you guys so everyone was aware!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAKING THE TIME TO SHARE THIS WITH US! You have proven that it is possible to use twine with the same 1:1 mixture! I have had it lying around for months and am now pregnant with my first baby so I want to do this for the light fixture in her nursery but am not in any position for trial and error and money wasting crafting these days! So thank you for helping give me the go ahead! Ive been making and using yarn balls for years weather it be for christmas gifts or decorations but never tried any other materials!
Beautiful outcome!
Aww sweetie you made this look so easy! I plan on making these for my living room. Thanks!
It looks great! I love it
Thanks for sharing 🙂 love this ❣️
I watched too many tutorials and yours was the best. Unfortunately I found this after testing one but I'll follow urs foe the next 5 I'll be making for my engagement party❤
Great job! Thanks for sharing
Love it going to make two
Oblong switch plate is an awesome idea, might use. Thanks
Well done! The best explanation I have heard yet. Marlys
Why not put the bulb in before u stuck it in the hole?
But awesome! Love it!
But will the Elmer's glue start melting from the heat of the bulb?
I love these. I tried to make 1 to use as a hanging cat bed! Unfortunately it did not come out as great as urs did. I didn't soak the twine, I painted over the twine as I formed it around the balloon. I had it outside to dry, some 15 hrs or so the balloon popped 🤭 It became a jumbled up twin mess IDK. I am going to try again using ur directions & see if I get a better out come. Thanks so much for sharing!
hi. love the design. Do u know how can I protect for humidity and rain??
Your sweet spirit shines through your videos!
Thanx for being there sweety
You actually did great....by giving helpful tips 🤗🤗🤗
Just one question. Can I use thin consistency cement instead of glue? I don't have glue right now 😰
This is AWESOME! Ideas I hadn't thought of yet so thanks so much. I'm making a Basketball hanging light for my nephew so researching. I ordered Orange cord and puff paint so I can add the black stripes. :)
I know im randomly asking but does any of you know of a method to log back into an instagram account??
I stupidly lost my login password. I love any tips you can give me.
@Abel Emiliano instablaster :)
@Dax Omari I really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and im in the hacking process now.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Dax Omari it worked and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my ass !
@Abel Emiliano Glad I could help =)
It can stay outside all year around?! What about rain?
How would you make this waterproof to keep outdoor year round? I tried it with the Elmer's glue and it totally failed once it got humid outside. :(
Is there anyway to make this weather proof?
Super curious how the ball and glue are holding up after all these years. Please let me know.
What size thickness jute did you use?
Does the lantern withhold the rain outdoors, or does the lantern need a spray adhesive or clear coat?
How much can I sell this.??
I attempted this and it was a poo-show. Glue everywhere, string falling off and getting tangled. Had to throw the whole project out. Why was it such a mess?! HELP.
Why is your walls so dusty??
Balloon...makes it that much cheaper..
tooo long
You talk tooo much
