DIY Monogram Tennis Ball

Engrave a tennis ball with your dog’s name to make a Christmas tree ornament or to keep track of the ball! Type your dog’s name or another message on the computer and make the lettering the ideal size, font and design you like. Print out the design, cut it out and tape it onto a small piece of carbon paper. Tape the carbon paper over the spot on the tennis ball that you would like to engrave. Use a pen to color the lettering, thereby transfering the design using the carbon paper. Remove the paper and carefully use a wood burning pen in a well-ventilated area to burn the yellow fuzz. Wash the ball to clean off any residue. If making the ball into a tree ornament, cut an X-shape into the ball top, tie the ends of a piece of rope in a knot and tuck the knot into the ball.
