I have been wanting a set of juggling balls for quite some time now, but I've always been loathe to shell out for them and I haven't wanted to invest the time to make a nice set out of leather, so this clever idea was absolutely perfect for me:

They did indeed take about 5 minutes to make; it took me longer to find the balloons than it did to fill then. I used popcorn instead of rice, so they're a little bit bumpy. I'm tempted to make another set using sand, although they might turn out a bit heavy for their size.
