How to Make Pokeballs

Directions:


Wrap 1/2 of a ping pong ball with duct tape.

Set the ping pong ball on a board or inside the box that you will be using to spray paint the ping pong balls.  The extra tape on the bottom of the ping pong ball will stick it to the painting surface and keep it from rolling around. 

Spray paint the tops of the ping pong balls with the Red Spray paint. 

Let the paint dry at least 2 hours before removing the duct tape.

Wrap the black artist tape around the center of the ping pong balls.

If you can't find black artist tape you can draw a black line between the red and white sides of the Poke ball with a black permanent marker.
Use the Pokeballs for Pokemon Go party games, decorations or party favors!
