    I was amazed at how easy this was (not being artistic at all). This is a fantastic idea and if you have enough of the soap balls you could really go to town. Great little video. Jorgi

    This looks cheap, tacky and totally rubbish. Not to mention it is a fire hazard once placed on a tree .... lights plus paper tissue equals fire risk.

    It's a bit too large for most Xmas trees but otherwise nice and easy to do. I would use it to wrap a gift instead.
