Great for Xmas ornaments! Lots of fun creating my own ornaments to decorate my salon space! They arrived very fast and in great condition. The glitter also came from Amazon!

We needed a semi sphere to fill in some flower pots to decorate for a wedding. This was the largest Styrofoam ball I could find. Cutting it in half was interesting. They worked great for the flower displays that we wanted.

I have searched Amazon (and eBay, and Etsy) looking for the cheapest way I can get a dozen 3" styrofoam balls, balls with a clear equator and poles, balls with no holes in them, balls that are smoooooth. I have done my research. These balls here are simply the best deal, at $9.98 with free Prime shipping, that's less than a buck a ball! They arrived in a well-protected cardboard box and plenty of cushioning, so none of them was damaged even a little. They are exactly what I was looking for (see above). And this price simply cannot be beat. I feel stupid putting in yet another 5-star review, but a good product is a good product, and a good price is a good price. Just is.

In stores, these run $6-$7 each, so the price is the best I could find. They arrived quickly and packaged nicely. They are dense and don't flake like some styrofoam. Exactly what I was looking for.

I'll tell you a secret. I have curtain rods in my house made of painted electrical conduit with these painted to look like wood. And you know what? You genuinely can't tell. They're for a long run along a high ceiling, so granted, nobody gets a close look. But buying actual curtain accessories, especially large enough/long enough for that space would be more expensive than my cheap self wanted to shell out, and buying the cheapest curtain rods would mean sagging and looking terrible. These turned out great, once I realized that spray paint would melt them into a puddle of toxic goo, but acrylic paint applied with a brush would maintain their smooth texture.
