Step One:  Cut 4 pieces of 3/8" orange ribbon into 4 inch lengths.
Don't forget to heat seal the ends!
Fold each piece in half & crease, so you'll know where the center is.
Glue first two pieces into an 'X' shape.

 
Step Two:  Glue other pieces like the ones in the picture below:
 
 
Step Three: Take the bottom ribbon & join the ends so that they make a circle:

 
Step Four:  Do the same for the next piece:

 
Continue until you've joined all pieces & it resembles a ball:
 


 
Make the Stem:
Cut a small piece of 3/8" brown ribbon, fold in half & glue at the bottom:

Place a small amount of glue in the center of the cut end & glue ends together:

 
Now glue to the top.  Glue on some small green pieces to make leaves if you want.
(I cut 3/8" korker ribbon in half lengthwise to make mine)
 
And you are Finished!
