Pom Pom DIY
Hey Everyone,
Hope you all are doing amazing
today. Today’s blog is about something that I see many people use, not only for
decoration, but on their clothes, for their jewelry and pretty much anything
like bag, key chains and much more. Pom poms can be made of simple thread as
well, but to get the best outlook, it is important to use yarn as it gives a
better effect. It might look a little
complicated to you because these pom poms look so perfectly made, you keep thinking
about the technique which could be used to make these pom poms by looking at
them because you don’t see the open end. So here is an easy tutorial for you to
understand how you can make simple, mini and large sized pom poms which can be
used for anything you like.
For starters, you need to get
yourself some yarn. Now you need to be sure of the theme of your dress, your
party décor or whatever it is you are using the pom poms for, so that when you
choose your yarn, you pick out the best color combination which will make the
pom poms stand out.
The easiest way to make pom poms
is using a fork. Yes, you can use a simple tool like a fork.
Step 1:
Wrap the yarn around the front
part of the fork. Make a god 10-20 folds around it, depending on how thick you
want your pom pom to be.
Step 2:
Now once you have folded the yarn
around the fork. Cut a small string of a yarn and tie a knot from the center of
the fork where you will find the middle of the wrapped yarn. This will look more like a bow now. This is the
main step for making a pom pom. You need to make this knot very tight so that
it does not open later.
As you tighten this know, you
will notice that the yarn now looks like a ball now.
Step 3:
The last step to make a pom pom.
You need to use a scissor, a smaller scissor for a smaller pom pom and vice
versa, to cut the loops that you had made as a result of folding the yarn
around the fork. Once you have cut them, use your fingers to remove any extra piece
of yarn and spread the pom pom equally.
TADA! Your pom pom is ready to be
used. Now if you don’t want to use a fork, the same technique could be applied
using your fingers or if a friend could help you, you can ask them to offer you
a hand, like literally.
