#Making a pompom how to

Now that you’ve learnt how to make pom poms, you can make a whole bunch and turn them into an easy pom pom garland!įirst, decide where you’d like to hang the pom pom garland in your house. Then you need a smaller shape for the centre – I used a $1 coin (about 22mm wide). Round shapes that you can trace: You’ll need a larger size first – I used a jar lid about 7cm wide.Cardboard: I used a pretty thin board, for example, a cereal box weight works well.Scissors: It’s so much easier (and more enjoyable) if they are really sharp.Yarn: I have used wool that’s about 8 ply, but I think you could experiment with any size.It is much easier to learn by actually watching the process in real life. I would also totally recommend you watch my video tutorial. I’d recommend starting out with a similar size to mine, then once you get the hang of it, you can try different sizes and weights.

In terms of the size of your pom poms, this is directly linked to the size of your template and how much wool you use on each one. Just a few bits and pieces you probably already have lying around at home, like cardboard and scissors. The great thing about this technique is that you don’t need anything fancy in terms of supplies. I’m going to teach you how to make pom poms with a DIY cardboard template. It’s a given then, that these pom poms will go perfectly with the fun and gorgeous vibe of any Kip&Co pieces you’re lucky enough to have in your home! I’m not sure why, but the bouncy round shape and little bits of wool popping out seem to capture a really fun mood. Hello, I’m Julie, and I’m so excited to be sharing this pom pom tutorial with you all! There is something so happy and joyful about a pom pom.
