I just put on a show and sat in my bed as I was making them. It took awhile to make them, but they are super easy to make. Here are the different sizes of pom poms that I made. The left one the first one I made and the right one is the one that I made using a lot more yarn. Here is the difference between the two pom poms using the same pom pom maker. As you can see by the picture, this time I wrapped the yarn around a lot more. You determine the size with how much yarn you wrap around the maker. You can make pom poms bigger or smaller using the same sized pom pom maker. Then I cut the longer strands to make the circle even. I then pulled back the colored plastic and took apart the pom pom maker. I tied 3 knots to make sure that it stayed put. Then I tied the pom pom by putting a piece of yarn around the pom pom maker and then tying a knot around all the yarn. With sharp scissors (fabric scissors work well), I cut the yarn along the middle. Once I had wrapped the yarn around the other side, I cut the yarn and then closed the pom pom maker. After that I continued to wrap the yarn around the next side. I put the yarn through that and then closed the plastic. Once I finished wrapping the yarn around the plastic, then I put the yarn through the side that has a slit. Make sure to not wrap the yarn on the bottom part of the colored plastic (the part that is flat). The first thing that I did was take the pom pom maker and then open one side and begin wrapping the yarn around it. Pom poms are super easy to make once you get the hang of it. I started with a straw wreath form (it’s a large one, about 18 inches wide), a wooden Merry that I got from the Target dollar spot, red, white and green yarn and then the pom pom markers.
