1. Open the ball and paint the inside of each ball half with red paint. Paint a second coat once dry and let it dry completely.

2. Turn each half over so that the flat part is on your table. Use the dimentional paint to create shapes such as swirls, stars or other designs on the outside of the ball. While the paint is still wet, shake glitter onto the dimensional paint and cover it good.
