How about wildly colorful
yarn ornaments to give your
home holiday accents that are
elegant, unusual and so
easy to make! The materials
you use are probably already
in your work basket or
sewing room.
J' They’re also great
/j\ gifts all the more
l ' ) precious because they
are hand made.
First, decide on the
colors .. . three basic H— —4
ones for the yarn, plus V —'
a fourth for the glass
r bead trim. These
\ colors should all go
r®®“7 well together.
For each yarn
ornament you’ll need the
following materials:
J 1 styrofoam ball
(slightly larger
%/ffV than a tennis ball)
2 pieces of hair wire,
each about 12” long
1 yard bulky quick- .
knit yarn - Color 1 a
3 yards bulky quick- II
knit yarn - Color 2 ™
12;yards bulky quick
> knit yarn - Color 3 r
25!3/8” glass beads,
Color 4 H>C><§>&}
1 gold filigree tassel
cap aLj
1*16” long piece of
!wire the same color I®#
;as the beads
glue
(You’ll also need a wire cut
ter or pliers; scissors, card
board, and string.
I (First cut a piece of thin
wire about 2V4” long.
Cilrve one end to fgfex
m|ke a 3/8” hook. mM
Pit glue on the
stipight length of the ml
wire and stick it into JjP
the styrofoam ball so
the hook projects far enough
tojuse as a hanger top.
fclext, tie a string around
the center of the ball. Now
tale Color 1 and Color 2
yafns. Cut five 5” pieces of
each tolor, a total of 10
pieces. Coil each individual
length into a flat circle
which will be about 1”
across. When you have finish
ed!'all 10 coils, glue them to
thp ball by spreading a V 4”
band of glue on each side of
th£ string. Alternate the
colors of the coils.
•When the coils are dry,
spread glue on the ball, above
thh circle of coils. Start wind-
ing Color 3 yarn on the ball
above the coils, continuing
until you have covered the
ball from the center to the
hook at the top. Then repeat
below the coils until the
whole ball is covered. Keep
each row of yarn close to the
preceding row, so that no
white shows through.
While the yarn is drying
onto the ball, make the tassel
for the bottom of the ball.
Cut a pieceof cardboard 5V2”
wide and about 8” long. Wind
Color 2 yarn around card
board seven times (finished
tassel will have 14 strands).
Cut a 4” length of hair wire
and slip it under the yarn.
Then slide the yarn off the
cardboard and bunch it to
gether tightly. Twist the wire
in close to the yarn. Now
push the wire ends through
the hole in the top of the fili
gree cap. Put glue on the
wires and push into . styro
foam ball at bottom (oppo
site the hanging hook). Make
sure that the hook on top and
tassel on bottom are in line
with each other.
Cut loop ends of tassel and
trim them even. Cut 10”
length of Color 2 yarn, put it
through the hook at the top
and tie it in a bow. Use this as
the hanger.
Now take the glass beads
and glue them onto the ball
between the coils of colored
yarn, according to this dia
gram:
Ball and tassel ornaments
aren’t the only things you can
make easily and enjoyably.
There are hosts of others.

Welfare Failure
Welfare is a total failure—
President Nixon said that. State
Welfare Director Bill Burson
said that. You said that.
You can change Welfare in
Georgia. Rich—poor, black
white, old—young, business
man—housewife—student
everyone in Georgia can volun
teer his, or her, services to
help the less fortunate.
Volunteers say “It doesn’t
have to be that way.” Volun
teers are essential to Georgia’s
new approach to welfare--Add
ing Hope to Help. Volunteers
show they care by lending a
helping hand to the child who
has never seen a pciture book,
the mother with no education
and children to support, the man
who has a family to care for
and who is totally disabled by
disease or accident, the blind
woma n who must learn to live
in a dark world and the eld-

erly man with no family who is
unable to care for himself.
Welfare Director Burson is
asking all Georgians to “Add
“Hope to Help” by volunteering
time, talents and skills through
the Department’s Volunteer
Services Program operating in
all 159 counties. He urges all
Georgians to promise to give
some time to community ser
vice by contacting the County
Department of Family and Ch
ildren Services where they live
to volunteer—and prove “It Do
esn’t Have To Be That Way.”
