How To Make Yarn Pom Poms

Do you want to make something fun and fluffy for your art projects? Let’s learn how to make yarn pom poms! It’s easy and super fun. Follow these simple steps, and you’ll have your own pom poms in no time!

What You Need:

  • Yarn in your favorite color
  • Scissors
  • A pom pom maker or a piece of cardboard

Steps to Make a Pom Pom:

Step 1: Wrap the Yarn

Take your yarn and start wrapping it around the pom pom maker or the piece of cardboard. Keep wrapping until the yarn looks thick and fluffy. This will make your pom pom nice and full!

Step 2: Tie the Yarn

Once you have wrapped enough yarn, cut a separate piece of yarn. Tie it tightly around the middle of the wrapped yarn. Make sure to tie a strong knot so it stays together.

Step 3: Cut and Fluff

Now, take your scissors and carefully cut through the loops on both ends of the wrapped yarn. Be careful with the scissors! After cutting, fluff up your pom pom by gently pulling the yarn strands apart. Trim any extra long pieces to make it round and neat.

Step 4: Attach Your Pom Pom

Use the extra piece of yarn you tied in the middle to attach your pom pom to your project. You can add it to hats, bags, or even make a garland with lots of pom poms!

Extra Fun Ideas:

Try using different colors of yarn to make rainbow pom poms. You can also make tiny pom poms or giant ones by changing how much yarn you wrap. Have fun experimenting and creating your own unique designs!

Now you’re ready to make your own yarn pom poms. Enjoy crafting and let your creativity shine!

  • What colors would you choose for your yarn pom poms, and why do those colors make you happy?
  • Can you think of other fun projects or items where you could use your pom poms? How would they make those projects more exciting?
  • Have you ever made something with your hands before? How did it feel to create something on your own, and what did you learn from it?
  1. Color Mixing Experiment: Gather different colors of yarn and create a few small pom poms using each color. Then, try mixing two or three colors together to see what new colors and patterns you can create. Ask yourself: What happens when you mix different colors? Do you like the new color combinations? Which is your favorite?

  2. Pom Pom Size Challenge: Experiment with making pom poms of different sizes. Use more yarn for a bigger pom pom and less yarn for a smaller one. Observe how the amount of yarn affects the size and fluffiness of the pom pom. Ask yourself: How does the size of the pom pom change when you use more or less yarn? Which size do you find the most fun to make?

  3. Pom Pom Hunt: Go on a pom pom hunt around your home or classroom. Look for items that have pom poms on them, like hats, keychains, or decorations. Think about how pom poms are used in different ways. Ask yourself: Where do you see pom poms being used? Can you think of new ways to use pom poms in your own projects?
