Wow ! You are so smart for this Design , Love this way, Will do it , Thank You So Much
When I was in Elementary School I had an aid, because of my physical disability made it hard for me to get around without help, but I was in I think the second grade and she made one for herself ( but a little different than this one). She showed hers to me, and I begged her to make me one. It lasted several years, and I was heartbroken when it we had to throw it way, but now thanks to you guys I know how to make one, and can do it myself! Thanks!
These things are old school! A lot of my grandmother's friends made these when I was a child. I have always loved them.
you dom :(
And old school is coming back! 😉
We used to buy these from a co worker. You don’t have to paint the cups at all, just leave them clear - being clear makes them like a lens that magnifies each light a little..
Secondly, use blinking multi color Christmas lights, and it is much more spectacular than non blinking lights.
This is really cool.Makes me almost like the holidays.
I can't wait for a Wednesday to come to see what great ideas you two will share! This will definetly be important part of my Christmas decoration! Thank you!
Love the blue idea and good idea spray painting the cups! Great job Greyson and Sharrah! Enjoy the rest of your week!
Had to revisit this this year. Said last year I wanted to do them. I want to make some of these to go in my book shelf! I love your DIY's Thank you for sharing them with us!!!
I LOVE THESE LIGHTS!!! Can't wait to try them out! I'm so excited I don't have to hunt a special stapler. Also, loved the step by step-frame by frame- process on how to do this. Rebecca's first video was great too :)
used glue gun but it doesnt hold tight so what i did i used cable twist hehe i drill small hole to tie
Thanks for the great tutorial. Today is April 13, 2020 and I made three sparkle balls for #LightForLife. They’re hang in a tree in my front yard and not only do they look wonderful, (in pink, lavender & lime green), but they’ve withstood a storm with high winds and lots of rain too! One thing I did differently was to use a plier stapler that uses heavier staples than a desktop stapler. Also, the handles made stapling the cups together very easy to do. The sparkle balls, along with other decorations, are bringing a bit of joy to my neighbors who are living through a life changing experience right now. Thank you again. I couldn’t have done it without your well detailed directions.
I had one with multiple colours and a flasher so it was hanging as a disco ball! I loved it!
Beautiful job. I can’t wait to make a clear sparkle ball. I have admired these for years & thanks to you two I can make my own. Thank you very much! Merry Christmas! Hope your holidays are safe.
oh my ... more ideas about sparkle ball love it. definitely use it in my apartment for decoration so cool. Thanks guys
Loved the demo, went out and bought everything so I can make some for our outside trees. Thanks
These are very cool. I don't celebrate Hannukah, but the blue one is so pretty, it almost looks like thereis blue garland tucked behind the cups, but it is just the reflectionof the lights on the clear balls. I think red lights and clear cups would be pretty for valentines day.
I got the cups can hardly wait to make mine infact I’m order more cups & make 2 . They look so pretty & so very cool. I know I’m gonna luv these❣️❣️
That is an awesome decoration for christmas! I think it would also be very beautiful for a wedding or graduation. The cool thing about it is that the cups can be painted any color.
You have the most awesome projects and amazing room designs I think I have EVER seen - I LOVE your ideas!!
Very professional! I made a 100 9oz clear cup ball with 2 colors with great results thanks to this video. good job!
I'VE BEEN MAKING AND SELLING THESE LIGHTS FOR OVER 16 YEARS AND I HAVE A SUGGESTION FOR YOU >> INSTEAD OF USING 50 LIGHTS >> USE 100 AND THEN PUT THE EXTRA 50 IN THE CENTER OF THE BALL BECAUSE THEN IT DOESN'T LOOK HOLLOW ON THE INSIDE AND BELIEVE ME THE LIGHTS ARE SO MUCH BRIGHTER AND MORE BEAUTIFUL :)
How much do you sell your sparkle balls for? I was thinking selling them also.
+Barbara Paulson-Moore I SOLD THEM FOR $20 EACH AND I MADE A LOT AND SOLD THEM ALL IN ONE DAY FOR $800 I HAD 40 MADE BUT I PUT THEM IN THE BACK OF MY TRUCK, HOOKED THWM UP TO A GENERATOR AND LIGHT THEM UP AT NIGHT AT THE WND OF WALMART :)
Thank you Guys. I was looking for a simple project for school for my daughter, we try so many things. & now that we sw this we went crazy with the idea. So hopefully this will give the grade she worked so hard to get. Well send Pics later on .
Thank you!
Happy Holidays Guys!
Ama-za-za-zing!!!! Doing this TOMORROW for sure!
I'm making these this year! You can put these outside because they are plastic and would look fabulous in a tree! Very easy to make!
Sooooooo very cool....And so easy and inexpensive...Again, very cool.
Happy holiday!🎄beautiful
I start with a circle of 12 as well...then 9...then 4...25 for each half...50 for the total...i don't use staples at all...they rarely hold and if dropped break apart easily...I use a pencil type soldering iron and melt the cups together...I also use the soldering iron to insert the LED lights as well...no drill needed...a 100 light combination string allows me to put 2 lights per cup...looks amazing...and the welds hold together for years!
This is a great idea for New Year's Eve!!
Love, love, love the tutorials! Thanks for sharing.
Awesome. You just solved New Years decorating for me! TU!
Really great detailed video, thank you
I love the blue one.
I always wondered how these were made. Ty
Love that idea. I think I might do one for my bedroom. So cool. Thanks. Denise
These are all fabulous!! Grayson, I really appreciate the way you explained the process in such specific detail!! You are wonderful at doing this, so even your "average dummy" could handle it!! I love to watch the two of you work together.....like the Ying and the Yang! Well done you two, enter into your rest.......until next week, however!!
These balls are awesome!!!!!
Thank you, have ordered them can't wait to get going.
Wow! This was so cool! :) thanks for the awesome tutorial
Hey guys, you are awesome. I have a question, won't the heat produced from the lights melt the plastic cups? Thanks..
You guys did and awesome video can you tell me if you can buy those Christmas lights when it isn't a holiday I can't fine them. Thank you
really a nice prj!!!
Cool lamp, I made one from spoons, look at you 👍
I need to try this! 🔥
I would recommend using LED✨ if you use one like they are make sure the paint IS NOT flammable 👍🏽
Thank-you for the excellent directions.
awesome project!!!
Beautiful 🎉
This is beautiful. Please how many cups did you use for the golden balls?
Great!!!can't wait to try this
This was soooo cool! I want to make mine now! My place is going to be awesome thanks to you guys! And that was really cool that you included Hanukkah!
YOU GUYS ARE SOOO AWSOME!!!
Andrins N YOU are so awesome!! Thanks for watching!!
BEST DIY YET!! WELL I LOVE ALL;) LOVE THESE VIDZZ... SOO GOING TO GET MAKE THIS.. AND PUT IT ON MY DRESSER OR THE TOP OF MY BOOKSHELF!!
hi,I make these also but I use 150 chasing light set and put 3 lights in each ball. the chasing effect is worth the effortI also use a soldering iron to burn the holes and install each light separately.after you burn the hole and put the light in the plastic will cool and lock it in place.hope this gives you some new ideas,bob
Cool im gonna try this
takes a lot for me to go wow or to actually want to copy an idea but this is awesome thanks guys
I love it!❤
I loved rebeccas clear light ball but the metalic spray thing made it more fun and the hanging thing was smart ill definitly do this at home and hang them in the window maybe make it smaller to fit, with plastic shotglasses. the hanukkah and christmas balls are the same right? :)
More idea more ideas I love it..... keep up the sharing
Hey cyndiboo79 I don't know if you have heard but Sharrah and Greyson are starting "The 12 DIY's of Christmas" beginning today... the first day after Thanksgiving :-) Its a pretty ambitious plan on their part to not only film 12 DIY projects but edit them one day at a time! My hat goes off to them :-) I hope you'll be watching and picking up a ton of easy affordable Christmas Decorating ideas you can use this Christmas! RR
Thanks love I'm going to watch them !
If I color the cups red, what color lights should I use? This tutorial is so pro like, am going to do it right away. Thank you for sharing.
I love this! I am having a hard time getting the staples to go through the cups. Can anyone recommend a specific stapler? I've done this with a soldering iron using clear cups but I dislike the fumes it emits.
This is so cool!
Thank you soo much for doing a Hanukka tutorial!!!!
beautiful
If you don't have a drill, you can use an exacto knife and cut a X in the bottom of the cup too!
I loved the balls awesome job
Waiting for the next video..that pretty much says it all! -pavithren ragazzo! You guys rock!!!
What an awesome D.I.Y.! Thank you so much!
Good and merry christmas....
THANKS SOOOOO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS ; I DONT KNOW HOW I WOULD HAVE KNOWN OF SUCH AN AMAZING THING....
Awesome Ideas
I like it. Thank you.
beautiful...
Is it plastic cups I love it
Terrific idea ! Question: did you ever try spraying the cups silver for the Hanukkah ball ?
OMG I love this
This is awesome!!!!!
lovely
I love these vids and this channel. More Xmas DIYs, I seriously can not get enough! :) (Y)
love it
This would be awesome any time of year depending on what color lights and cups you use. I think they would be beautiful hung outside for a New Year's Eve party or something, and if it's too cold you'd want them leading into your home I suppose and then have some in the main room you use for the party. The party could be any time of year as well. LOL
Awesome Love This.
Love this project but how will I get it to hang down from the ceiling?
I would love to see you create a clear one with clear twinkle lights to see what sort of reflection and effect it has blinking and twinkling off and on against the clear plastic cups.
I think they could have a big impact hanging outside from a large, front entry or porte cochere (you'd want the scale to be right). Perhaps hanging staggered, in a group of three, dripping with lots of greenery in the center (to hide the extension cords and to feel extra lush) and add a grand, wired bow at the top with the tails, like tendrils, hanging down amid the sparkle balls and greenery. So many possibilities...
EEN63 I love your ideas. I think a twinkling sparkle ball would look fab and the ideas you suggested for hanging and concealing the cords are spot on. Please do it and post a photo on our Facebook! :-)

Your vids are great
O my! you just gave me an idea!
going to make one for my son.!
Think I will do red white and blue for July 4th let you know how they turn out.
that was beautiful. im so gonna try this. I ma try to make a superman theme!
i have a question!can i take for the sparkle ball another light?i mean small led lamp?thx
super it is very nice
This is exactly what I was looking for! - only I didn’t know it. 😅
How many cups did you use per ball? ..guess I missed that part. 🥴
Update..
…okay, I admit I listened to this on mute because, for me, Christmas music is ONLY for Christmas eve and Christmas day. Anyway, I went back and saw that I need AT LEAST 48 SOLO CUPS - for anyone else who might have muted too.
amazing!i l0ve it!
Really cool ' Thanks for sharing ,,!!
I had a lot of problems stapling my cups together. And the bottom row on each half wouldn't set flat together.What did I do wrong? What size of staples did you use?
I'VE ALSO MADE THEM WITH RUNNING LIGHTS AND THEY ARE SPECTACULAR >> WHEN YOU HANG THEM WITH THE EXTENSION CORD, YOU CAN SEW A MATCHING SLIP COVER TO HIDE THE CORD OR MATCH THE SLIP COVER TO YOUR WALL TO HELP HIDE THE CORD :)
These are Gorgeous!!!
I really love this, i plan to use this with my daughters room but i have 1 question. does the lights get to hot for the cups?
Vivian Casoque I'VE MADE THESE LIGHTS FOR OVER 16 YEARS AND NO THEY DON'T GET HOT AT ALL >> I PUT ONE IN EACH OF MY GRAND KIDS ROOM AS WELL AS MY OWN AND THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL :)
So cool! I wonder if anyone tried putting glitter all over the cups instead of spray paint and adding flashing lights.
Am trying so much to make it smaller but it's not working . Am trying to use 12 or 14 for the first layer but it's not working . After making the first layer round , it was about 22 cups , it is becos of the type of cup am using ?
Is there a way to make the balls smaller ? If so how? I would love to put these on my bookshelf. Thanks!
+Savannah Alexander use smaller cups.
+Sahar Harb What size do you recommend?
Just put less cups on the bottom
+Carys Evans How many would you suggest?
+Savannah Alexander use plastic dixie size cups like the ones made for the bathroom.
wow!!!
