There is something undeniably magical about a disco ball. It catches the light, throws sparkles across the room, and instantly says, “It’s time to party.”
Today’s torn foil disco ball craft is perfect for anyone who loves a bit of glitz without the fuss. It’s messy in the best way, incredibly forgiving (no precision cutting required!), and results in a textured, shimmering ornament that looks far more expensive than it actually is. Whether you are hosting a big bash in the classroom or having a cozy countdown with the kids, these shiny spheres will set the perfect mood for ringing in the new year!
