Who wants to make some pom pom garland?

pom pom garland with livelaughrowe.comI asked my hubby for these Large Clover Pom Pom makers and the Small Clover Pom Pom makers.  They were supposed to be a part of my birthday gift, but someone {ahem} left the receipt out for mwah to see.  YAY for me!!  Boo for hubby!! I was so excited to get these beauties in the mail…

…and boy do they make pom-pom making fun and easy!!

Now, you don’t have to run out and buy these clever little gadgets.  You can use your hands/fingers, the old school conventional method, or the fork method.  However you decide to make them, let’s grab some yarn and make some pom-poms!

Yarn Supplies for yarn pom pom garlandWatermelon Colored Pom Pom Garland with livelaughrowe.comI’ll show you in pictures how I used the Clover pom pom makers.
It will give you an idea of how easy it is to use…
and you’ll want to buy one {giggle}.

The last step is wrapping that yarn around the center, tying and knotting.  Voila!

how to, diySo, then you make lots and lots of pom poms — and use them to make pretty things, such as this sweet pom-pom garland.  I {love} the pink, green and white. If I had to ‘title’ this one — I’d say Watermelon Fun. It makes me think of Summer, Watermelons and a down right good time!

DIY Pom Pom Garland with livelaughrowe.comThe skies the limit… in the picture at the top of this post, I kept the extra yarn on the pom poms (from the piece of yarn that is used to tie/hold it all together).  I think it adds a little flair; however, they can easily be snipped off for a clean look, as you can see with the Watermelon Pom Pom Garland Fun.  I’m excited to add some of these to my shop.

What have you used yarn pom poms for?

    I love your colorful pom pom garland! Those pom pom makers are great, aren’t they?
    I used mine to make pom poms for a garland of “snowballs” for winter.

    I’ve never seen these before!! I always just use my hands. It’s kind of a pain to do it that way. These look so easy! I think will be buying some soon.:) And your watermelon garland is adorable!

    So stinkin’ adorable!

    I had no idea you could buy a tool to make pom poms. Your watermelon garland looks amazing and don’t even get me started about the yellow chair and the wall behind it!

    So much eye candy 🙂

      I had no idea these tools existed either, Claire! Boy am I glad that I’m officially ‘in the loop.’ I think I have as much fun styling for the pictures as I do making the projects 🙂 Thanks for loving on my pom poms and making me smile. Have a lovely day!

    These are adorable! I have a thing for yarn in general! Last year I wanted to make pom pom garland for a tree, but we had just moved in November and it never happened. I plan on it this year though! : )

    ooh, ooh, ooh, you just took me back to my childhood. And the watermelon color you chose makes it all the better. Just great! Now I have to have a pom pom maker. Or maybe I’ll do it the old fashioned way if I can remember exactly how we did it, (It’s been [a-hem] a little while…) 🙂 Now, was it with cardboard or around our hands…can’t remember. Probably much like the pom pom maker I’m sure, just not as cool. Thanks for the idea.

    My Mom taught me to make yarn pom poms by making two donut like shapes from scrap cardboard then wrapping the yarn around the inner center of the cardboard donut and cutting the yarn loops to bind it with a strand of yarn then trim into a puffy ball.
