Probably the best way to make a paper mache ball is to first plan what size of ball you wish and what kind of frame you will use to shape it. Many like to use balloons which can be popped after the paper mache has dried, leaving a shell. Balloons however are rarely perfectly round and so others use wire frames, styrofoam, old sports balls - basically anything round that won't be missed!

The best way to get some ideas is to go to "Goggle Image Search" and type "Paper mache ball" and a plethora of ornaments and works will reveal themselves to you. Some links below are some variations worth perusing.

If you are looking to create a hollow ball, the easiest method is to paper mache a balloon that is blown up only until it is circular -- do not blow it up so much that it begins to look like a pear.

Once the paper mache has dried, you may pop the balloon with a thin needle, or wait for it to deflate on it's own..

You must leave about 1'' piece open if you wish to remove the balloon once it has deflated; you many fill this in with more paper mache after the deflated balloon is removed.

You could make a hat. Paper mache the top of a round balloon to get the right shape and style the hat to what a kid might like.
