But it's Only a Dollar: Thumbtack Attack

As promised, here comes the easiest Dollar Store tutorial ever.  Easy-to-follow photos after the jump.

Grab:
1 Package foam decorative balls (I found a five-pack at my dollar store)
2-3 boxes of brass thumb tacks

So, all in all, I spent $3.00 plus tax.  But arranged in a vase or glass hurricane, easy, peasy, non-breakable decoration.
