Step 1
Paint the cardboard box red and the 5 cm Ø polystyrene ball black.
TIP: you can stick the polystyrene ball on a skewer so you can paint it without getting your hands dirty!

Step 3
Cut the excess chenille and bend the ladybug's legs.
Step 4
Glue the polystyrene ball to the edge of the box lid using a glue gun (for instant and durable adhesion).
