If you or your little ones enjoy using stress balls, you will love these colorfulDIY stress balls.
They turn out super cute and are easy to make.

You only need a few basic items to create your own stress balls.
You wont ever need to spend money on stress balls again!
I know you will have fun making and using these stress balls.
Heres to crafting and de-stressing!
Take a handful of them and put them in your bowl.
Step 2.Next, add some water.
You should have enough water to completely cover the balls.
These will need to soak for a little while.
Step 3.The next step is the waiting step.
The amount of time that you soak your beads will depend on how big you want them to be.
The beads turned out a little bit too large for my liking.
I discovered that bigger beads tend to break more easily when you are using the stress ball.
I recommend creating smaller beads by soaking them for about 1-2 hours in total.
Step 4.Now, put your beads into your plastic bottle.
Step 5.Next, get your balloon.
Stretch it over the top of your plastic bottle.
Step 6.Now, turn your bottle over so that the beads are falling into the balloon.
Step 7.You might have to squeeze the bottle a little bit to help them move into the balloon.
Step 8.Once the beads are inside the balloon, tie the balloon up to keep the beads in!
Step 9.Your cute and colorful stress ball is complete.
Dont these turn out so adorable?
