I am buying Pier 1 spheres especially the floral, pearl ones.  Okay, foil too in colors.  What to do with them?  I have a small house, flat surfaces are prime real estate.  I have tried a glass urn but it lacks something.  Any ideas?  No room for a big bowl.

TRAVELER, I'm intrigued.  Am not familiar with the spheres at Pier One.  I don't have any brilliant ideas, but it's always interesting to have contrasting textures, don't you think? Rough vs. smooth, polished and iridescent vs. opaque.  How would they look in a basket of some kind?

 

That sounds lame, ha.  I'll be interested to see what better ideas others come up with...

I like to put spheres on candlesticks.  I especially like when they are different heights and shapes. 

 

I would keep the spheres or the material of the candlesticks the same.

You could hang them in a basket or some kind of decorative container like this, switch to spheres instead of fruit:

If you are crafty, hot glue some hooks on one side of the spheres and arrange them on a wall:

I find it takes a lot of room just to store sperehical shaped objects.   I got a set of 3 VPH spheres I'd love to get rid of.

@mousiegirl  Want mine?  I can see how you might lose a decor item now and then.  You need to catalog them all.

@Kachina624  No thank you, lol, have plenty.  I figure sooner or later things will show up.  When Valerie first brought these, I bought all colors, then returned all but two sets of the red, but then I bought more colors throughout the years, the last being the gingerbread, candy cane, and cardinal in 2015, those are what I can't find, but plan to tear apart the storeroom just in case DH put them in there.Smiley Happy

@SilleeMee. Where did you find those hanging wire spheres?  I could use some of those.

@Kachina624,

I don't know what store would carry them. I just posted a pick from my google search and found these. I'm sure if you google them, you might find a store. Sorry I can't be more specific.
