This is the logical evolution of A Christmas Story's leg lamp—a questionable DIY ornament attempt reminiscent of many holiday-themed Pinterest projects. The idea of placing balls in pantyhose and hanging them was already a stretch, but when a copycat tried it, the results were even worse.
Conclusion While creativity in holiday decor can lead to fun and unique designs, it’s important to recognize when an idea may not translate well into practice. Investing in ready-made decorations can often save time, money, and the frustration associated with failed DIY projects. Embracing practicality can lead to a more enjoyable holiday season!

While pantyhose can hold an orb and be hung outside with minimal risk, it’s astonishing how they tend to rupture at the first sign of a nail within a foot of them. This fragility makes them a poor choice for outdoor decor.
Conclusion Investing in inexpensive outdoor lighting is a far better option. In the long run, it will likely be more cost-effective than purchasing both decorative orbs and pantyhose, ensuring a more durable and visually appealing solution for your outdoor space.
