Tutorial Thursday- Pom Poms - three kinds!

Stampin' Up! have done it again!  

They have shared with us three great ways to make Pom Poms!  

This great trend was hot in the 60's and are recently making a comeback in the crafting world! 

Be sure to share with me the ways you have used these pom pom's in your crafts!

Just follow the easy steps pictured below.


If you would like to create a garland, just thread a needle with a length of Baker’s Twine and run it through the pom poms.

After I finished making the Baker’s Twine pom poms, I began to wonder what would happen if I wound 1/2" Seam Binding Ribbon around a fork instead of Baker’s Twine. To my surprise, the result looked very much like a marigold!
Then I thought: How can I create a bigger pom pom flower? The old-fashioned way: using cardboard donut shapes made with super-thin white cardboard, a 2-1/2" Circle Punch, a 1/2" Circle Punch, and our Daffodil Delight 1/2" Seam Binding Ribbon. When I finished winding, cutting, and tying, out popped a daffodil . . . just the thing for embellishing a Mother’s Day gift! (Believe me . . . I don’t usually get this lucky!)




I could have kept going with flower-making . . . but then I saw a paper pom pom garland on Pinterest. I HAD to try that, too. The result: today’s Tricky Tip features three ways to make small pom pom projects—using Baker’s Twine, 1/2" Seam Binding Ribbon, and Designer Series Paper. They are all so easy and fun!
