- Is this ornament safe around kids and pets?
- Yes. It is made of shatterproof plastic, so it will not break into glass shards if it falls or gets knocked. It can still crack under heavy impact, but it is far safer than glass.
- How big is it compared with a standard ornament?
- At 4.75 inches across, it is roughly half again the width of a typical 3-inch ball. It suits large trees and outdoor displays better than small tabletop trees.
- Can it be used outdoors?
- The plastic body handles cold and damp better than glass, so it works on a covered porch or patio tree. Keep it out of standing water and direct sun to protect the finish.
- Does it come with a hanging loop or string?
- It has a hanging cap for a hook or loop. Hooks and ribbon are usually not included, so plan on your own ornament hooks.
- How many do I need for a tree?
- Because it is large, a handful fills a lot of space. Use them as accents among smaller ornaments rather than covering a whole tree.
