Fill a clear glass bowl or vase with ceramic balls. Mix solid-colored or clear balls in with hand-painted balls or use a couple of different sizes of balls for contrast and interest. Place the vase or bowl on a top shelf if you have children or pets, on the fireplace mantel, the center of a table or on an end table or nightstand.
Line up a set of ceramic balls in a shallow tray or basket or set them on candle holders designed for round candles. Combining ceramic balls with other materials adds texture, dimension and interest to the display. For example, the balls can sit on wrought iron candle holders or a wooden tray.
Accessorize the ceramic balls with other materials and colors that complement the theme, style or colors in the room. For example, add a string of small silver beads to blue ceramic balls or mix the ceramic balls with faux moss balls, silk flower petals or sand.
Match the colors of your ceramic balls or the display you're creating with them to the colors found throughout the room to unify the space and connect the balls to the room.
