It makes an unusual, stylish and incredibly easy to care for alternative to an indoor plant.

If you are using more than one ball, we find that cutting the fishing line at different lengths (so the balls float at varying levels) looks best, but feel free to play around with them! The suction cups are hard to see, but if you wish, you could disguise them a bit by adding a layer of gravel or shingle to the bottom of the vase before filling with water.
