Paint the balls with the mixed shade of lemon yellow and chrome yellow hue using the brush.

QUICK TIP: You can use water-based glass colours of shade golden yellow. You can directly apply the colour on the ball without using a brush.

Air-dry Balls

You can use old straws in a vertical bin to hang balls for drying faster.

Making Space for Balls

Meanwhile, as the balls dry, we will draw circles on the inner lid of your shoe-box. Based on the size of your box you can plan on how many emojis you would need to draw.

The box i chose can comfortably have 7 emojis placing 4 in the first row and 3 in the second row.

After tracing out circles, grab a cutter and cut them out.

Cutting Emojis Out

This is time-taking task, you would need patience to cut out the emojis from the print out. And, secure them.

You can also use a permanent marker to draw emojis directly on balls, but cutting them out from prints sounds easier. Isn't it ?

The Fun Part

Before anything else, if your shoe-box has any letters or images on it you can paint the surface or stick some plain paper.

Now, get glue and stick the emoji cut-outs onto balls. Stick them carefully in the right proportion.

And, using Glue-gun secure these lively emoji balls on the lid of shoe-box.

Placing the Lights
