Super Stalker Sunday is a weekly blog hop hosted by&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;April &lt;/strong&gt;of&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://greenmissionmama.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mama on a Green Mission&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Emily &lt;/strong&gt;of&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.naptimeismytime.com/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Nap Time is My Time&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;and&lt;strong&gt; Mariah &lt;/strong&gt;of&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.formulamom.com/"&gt;Formula Mom&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;As you know, blogs hops are a great way to meet other bloggers, socialize and gain more followers. We created this hop as away for you to connect with other bloggers via RSS Feed, Google Friend Connect, Email Subscribers, Facebook Fans, Twitter Followers, and the new Google+!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;How to Super Stalk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Follow &lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;each&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;host&lt;/span&gt; &lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;at&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;least&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt; one way. &lt;/strong&gt;Remember to leave a comment, as hostesses we’re committed to returning the follows. But please be patient as we are busy mamas and it may take us a few days to return the visit and follow. You will only have to link up on &lt;em&gt;one&lt;/em&gt; of the host sites and your link will appear on &lt;em&gt;all&lt;/em&gt; as we use the same linky. After you follow the hosts and the featured blogger, &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: white;"&gt;follow at least the four blogs listed above you on the linky. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: white;"&gt;If your time permits,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: white;"&gt; follow as many other blogs are you are willing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;If you're already follow somebody via GFC, consider following them in another way as well!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Remember: &lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;You will only get as much as you give.&lt;/span&gt; The more blogs you can visit, the more visits you will gain in return. We are all here to socialize and greet, not visit only &lt;em&gt;your&lt;/em&gt; blog.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;While we encourage sharing our button and hop with as many as possible, it is not required. The more you spread the word though, the more we socialize and &lt;strong&gt;all gain followers&lt;/strong&gt;!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;If you would like to be a featured blogger, being shared with &lt;strong&gt;more than 32,000 combined followers&lt;/strong&gt; between the hosts of this hop, please link up! At the end of each week we will select a blog via Random.Org to be the featured blog for the following week. The featured blogger will be emailed by Tuesday morning. Please be sure to&lt;span style="color: blue;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt; check your spam folders!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; This linky will remain open until 3:00PM EST on Monday!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;center&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I didn't use any glue, I tucked the ends in and under the yarn. &amp;nbsp;I kept wrapping until I liked how it looked.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nE0HRplqavs/TxyirAhWvbI/AAAAAAAAKOs/wTSceB4CpXI/s1600/IMG_7959.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="426" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nE0HRplqavs/TxyirAhWvbI/AAAAAAAAKOs/wTSceB4CpXI/s640/IMG_7959.jpg" width="640" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I decided six snowballs would be enough.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-zgRXD-5Igrk/TxyirVpjSJI/AAAAAAAAKO0/nwX3zpT4kbU/s1600/IMG_7960.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="640" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-zgRXD-5Igrk/TxyirVpjSJI/AAAAAAAAKO0/nwX3zpT4kbU/s640/IMG_7960.jpg" width="425" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;They got a spritz of spray adhesive and a sprinkle of silver glitter&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VqwPQBf-EIU/TxyirbMYREI/AAAAAAAAKO8/EA6LlwqGHL4/s1600/IMG_7962.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="426" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VqwPQBf-EIU/TxyirbMYREI/AAAAAAAAKO8/EA6LlwqGHL4/s640/IMG_7962.jpg" width="640" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;and a sprinkle of crystal glitter. &amp;nbsp;Let them dry.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5fLm3i07W9I/TxyirzKXFsI/AAAAAAAAKPE/UPRwa9uIZnU/s1600/IMG_7963.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5fLm3i07W9I/TxyirzKXFsI/AAAAAAAAKPE/UPRwa9uIZnU/s400/IMG_7963.jpg" width="266" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-b8NcI7tDVpw/TxyisGlA8dI/AAAAAAAAKPM/M7_0tIcSNZo/s1600/IMG_7970.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-b8NcI7tDVpw/TxyisGlA8dI/AAAAAAAAKPM/M7_0tIcSNZo/s400/IMG_7970.jpg" width="266" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Once the snowballs were dry, it was time to put the garland together. &amp;nbsp;I measured out the yarn on my table and threaded one end through a darning needle.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-RropLqp8atE/TxyisU6SPnI/AAAAAAAAKPU/UzAAEHhQn9I/s1600/IMG_7971.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-RropLqp8atE/TxyisU6SPnI/AAAAAAAAKPU/UzAAEHhQn9I/s400/IMG_7971.jpg" width="266" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YUy4dA0YKyw/Txyisrtwt7I/AAAAAAAAKPc/qUfi-6VqLvo/s1600/IMG_7972.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YUy4dA0YKyw/Txyisrtwt7I/AAAAAAAAKPc/qUfi-6VqLvo/s400/IMG_7972.jpg" width="266" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;To make it easier to string the snowballs on the yarn, I first pierced them with a bamboo skewer to make a pilot hole and then pulled the needle and yarn through the snowball.&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EfiAEB8FGso/Txyis-arDzI/AAAAAAAAKPk/JfrDD2Inzys/s1600/IMG_7974.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="426" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EfiAEB8FGso/Txyis-arDzI/AAAAAAAAKPk/JfrDD2Inzys/s640/IMG_7974.jpg" width="640" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I spaced out the snow balls along the yarn and then added the snowflakes. &amp;nbsp;I peeled a little of the backing off and sandwiched the yarn between the sticky part and the backing. &amp;nbsp; I wasn't sure how well it would hold but they have held pretty well. I might hot glue them on if they become a problem.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DgP3Cp6i5NM/TxyitXgKaCI/AAAAAAAAKPs/777VJgsm4dQ/s1600/IMG_7981.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="426" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DgP3Cp6i5NM/TxyitXgKaCI/AAAAAAAAKPs/777VJgsm4dQ/s640/IMG_7981.jpg" width="640" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;Then it was time to see how it looked. &amp;nbsp;I kept the ends of the yarn very long until I knew how long I wanted it to be and how I wanted it to hang.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-8pTQoAsuYRQ/TxyitxluWbI/AAAAAAAAKP0/3IU3T9v7Ku8/s1600/IMG_7983.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="640" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-8pTQoAsuYRQ/TxyitxluWbI/AAAAAAAAKP0/3IU3T9v7Ku8/s640/IMG_7983.jpg" width="426" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I use these brick hooks to hold all of our garlands. They don't damage the brick and can hold a lot of weight. This garland is really light so I could have used mini command hooks under the mantel.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I decided I needed one more snowball once I saw it hanging up there.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_WCEua7KY2c/TxyiuWkla3I/AAAAAAAAKQE/EL1DL-fCVhY/s1600/IMG_7987.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="426" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_WCEua7KY2c/TxyiuWkla3I/AAAAAAAAKQE/EL1DL-fCVhY/s640/IMG_7987.jpg" width="640" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I experimented with different lengths of the garland. &amp;nbsp;Here it was hanging a little lower than I ended up hanging it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zJZtpODUMR0/TxyiuleC1UI/AAAAAAAAKQM/qlN4QCl0exE/s1600/IMG_8009.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="426" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zJZtpODUMR0/TxyiuleC1UI/AAAAAAAAKQM/qlN4QCl0exE/s640/IMG_8009.jpg" width="640" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I tightened up the sides and pulled it up closer to my cherubs, then trimmed the ends down.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3BMeyjQvTxI/TxyiuzOdh5I/AAAAAAAAKQY/pL-T7IMzs2s/s1600/IMG_8010.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="425" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3BMeyjQvTxI/TxyiuzOdh5I/AAAAAAAAKQY/pL-T7IMzs2s/s640/IMG_8010.jpg" width="640" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;Some close ups of the garland.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zuj9RshyNF8/TxyivLo-OYI/AAAAAAAAKQg/WOt55kEHUCg/s1600/IMG_8011.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="426" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zuj9RshyNF8/TxyivLo-OYI/AAAAAAAAKQg/WOt55kEHUCg/s640/IMG_8011.jpg" width="640" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;It's simple but I love it!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lRB9FyL6XnE/TxyiveURBVI/AAAAAAAAKQo/ptjvgVtgjyI/s1600/IMG_8012.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="426" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lRB9FyL6XnE/TxyiveURBVI/AAAAAAAAKQo/ptjvgVtgjyI/s640/IMG_8012.jpg" width="640" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;It didn't break the bank either=under $8.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
