Product Information

With six different ways to make a DIY pom pom, whichever method will be best for you will most likely come down to personal preference. I’m sorry to hear your pom pom isn’t coming together but I’d be happy to help troubleshoot what might have gone wrong. As long as you’re counting the number of times you wrap your yarn, you end up with nice, uniform pom poms that can be made in just a few short minutes. They are such an amazingly versatile component that can be used in so many crafting projects, both as an embellishment or as the main attraction. This method is great because it requires the least amount of supplies and you can also get three different size poms depending on how many fingers you use to wrap the yarn around.

With your two TP tubes held next to each other, wrap your yarn around them without wrapping too tightly. Although it’s not a big deal to be counting your loops in many cases, I tend to do projects that require a lot of pom poms at once.

Cut a short length of yarn and place it in between your fingers (index and middle for a two or three finger pom and between your middle and ring for a four finger pom). If you are finding yourself having any trouble with your current pair of scissors, I’d definitely suggest checking these out. You’ve inspired some ideas on how to go about making some very tiny poms for a tiny 1/25 scale resin cheerleader. This is another good method that can be used if you need a specific size pom pom, since the template can be easily resized. I’m going to try using unwaxed dental floss and just one or two tines of a fork, based on your tutorial.

Next, slide your scissors into the groove on the edge of the pom pom maker and snip your yarn all the way around. And if you are a crafter who loves using pom poms in your projects like I do, it is very well worth it.However, I still prefer using my Clover pom pom makers not just because they make the best looking and most dense poms out of all these methods, but also because I don’t need to count my loops like in most of the other methods. Cut another small length of yarn and pull it through the middle of the pom pom maker and tie a tight knot. This method is useful if you need very small pom poms about 1 inch wide, though this may vary depending on the width of your fork and how much you trim your pom pom down. Now that your pom is secure, you can slide your templates off and trim the pom pom until it’s how you like. After cutting the template out of cardboard, snip a small piece of yarn and put it through the large opening.

I made the teeny tiny ones for the tops of her tennys last night using Magic Sculpt, and after making them, I decided that larger poms would require a different material. You can use the small notch at the other end of the template to hold the ends of the yarn piece until you need it later. The only other thing you need to make this besides the usual yarn and scissors is two toilet paper tube rolls. For any of these DIY pom pom methods, you can use any type of standard scissors you have on hand, but I would HIGHLY recommend these ones when making any kind of pom poms.Since this article is a compilation of all the different DIY pom pom methods I’ve covered before, I’m only going to give very brief instructions on each one.
