piece of carton to cover top and bottom openings
twine

bat [wooden stick ]
set up the china ball and insert the wire support as if using it like a lamp.
brush glue on surface of china ball and paper mâché away with white tissue paper pieces
in between layers add cardboard to bottom of ball & top with a few layers [all in all about two to three layers
hang on hanger over night to dry ]
once dry - fill your piñata
