You could always make your own fun flock by grating the styrofoam balls over a bowl and adding a bit of dye to them. Here's a tutorial stating rubbing two cut styrofoam balls together and using re-inkers to color the flock: How to Make Your Own Flower Flocking - Rubber Art Stamping

Have you tried them using different shades of the same color on the same ball (Ombr�)? That would be gorgeous! Or how about making spirals using two or four colors (it would definately take some thinking and planning!) on a third color background (like red and green on white, or yellow and lavendar on pink,etc.)?
Everyone on here is so utterly awesome with all the info. Love these links-so, thanks from me, too!

Here is a link to the ball ornament. It seems that is can also be called 'pineapple' style. This is with fabric but they mentioned that other materials can be used.
