  • Make a hole in the middle of the plastic lid of the jar and slide the rod through it so that the ball remains above the lid.
  • Bend the bottom of the rod to make an angle of 90˚
  • Make a narrow strip a foil and fold it in the middle.
  • Fold up about1/8 of an inch on each end of the strip to make small flaps.
