Pack of 4 Make Your Own Photo Baubles (pack includes 2 Star Shaped & 2 Round) £1.99 @ B&M in-store (not available on-line).
Each Bauble Holds 2 photos and there's a template included.
Although there are no measurements on the pack for the baubles I've just measured them and the size is (VERY) approximately as follows:
Round - 2.75 inches/7cms diameter.
Star - Measurement from tip to tip across the top 2 points approx 3.5 inches/9cms.
Also found when I opened them they are hinged at the top under the gold hanging bit.
Just for price comparison - was in Home Bargains a few weeks ago and they were selling a similar set for £2.99 at that time and Boots are selling the similar shot2go set for £8 or 3 for 2.

No probs...glad to have been of help...word from the wise though...if you decide to use polystyrene balls...pop them in one side and "seal" that side with a photo before doing the other side...don't put the polystyrene in both sides and then try to attach the photos as if you're as kack handed as me you'll end up with polystyrene everywhere and virtually none inside the decoration...lol...

Can't see any reason you wouldn't be able to do this...all the glitter would obviously fall to the bottom though...I got some little polystyrene balls and put them in along with the photos so that when you shake them the polystyrene looks like a kind of "snow" effect....well it does if you squint at them in a really poor light or in an alcohol induced state...lol...

Not a clue to be honest...not sure if you mean loose glitter inside but they have a hinge at the top underneath the gold hanging part and open upwards...if you mean can you glue glitter on to them I would assume so as they are made out of plastic and if you had the correct type of glue I can't see any reason the glitter wouldn't stick to them...sorry I can't be of more help.

Thank you for confirming as I was sure they were £2.99 in Home Bargains but was starting to doubt my memory as it was a few weeks ago I was in there...on account of the fact the nearest one to me is 180 miles away by sea so not exactly a regular haunt of my mine...lol...neither is B&M for that matter but happened to be away for a few days and bought the baubles while I was away and kept meaning to post them on here as thought they were a really good buy compared to what I've paid in the past :wink:

Looked at them in Home Bargains a few weeks ago and the set I saw in there that looked very similar was £2.99 (as I said in description for post) unless they've reduced them since?
