How to make a kissing ball

Items needed:
red velvet ribbon, 1/2 inch and 1 inch
6 or 8 inch embroidery hoop
mistletoe
florist wire
hot glue 

Separate the two pieces of the embroidery hoops and fit them
together, 

one inside the other, at a 90 degree angle. Secure in this position
with florist wire or hot glue. Secure a piece of the 1/2 ribbon to
the bottom of the hoop. Wind the ribbon around the edges of the
hoop, 

wrapping each "arm" in a spiral motion until the wood is covered
completely. Secure with hot glue. 

Form two bows with the 1 inch ribbons, leaving the ends dangling. 

Secure one to the bottom of the joined hoops, the other to the top.
Gather the mistletoe into a ball, secure the ends with florist
wire.
Insert inside the globe and twist the florist wire to the top
of the ball. Hang the ball somewhere you are sure to get kissed!
