How do you make a pom pom?

Answer 1

To make a pom pom, the first step would be to find a piece of cardboard that is as wide as the pom pom desired. Using yarn, wrap it around the cardboard and secure with a knot. Continue wrapping the yarn around until the desired thickness is reached. Then using a separate piece of yarn gather up one side of the yarn and tie a knot. Turn the cardboard over and cut the yarn down the middle and remove the cardboard.

Answer 2

Depending on the size and material you would like your pom poms to be would depend on how you make them. The basic principles are the same. You wrap your tissue paper, or plastic or yarn around a rolling paper roll, or fork or spoon until they are the size you desire. Then you cut the loops on either side, creating a pom pom.

Answer 3

There are several ways to make a pom pom. First you can the material you are using, like string or yarn, and wrap it around a book. Keep wrapping the material around the book until you achieve the thickness you desire. Before you cut the material off the book, tie all the strands together as tightly as possible. Once you cut the material off, trim the pom pom to the desired diameter.

The other way to do it is to create a pom pom maker which is relatively simple. Just cut out a two inch in diameter circle out of cardboard with a one inch diameter hole in the middle. Make two of these and place the one of top of the other. Wrap the material around the edge of both the circles until the whole circle is covered. Carefully cut at the edges of the circles so that the scissors come between the two circles. After everything is cut, tie all the strands together and trim your pom pom so that it's perfectly circular.

What I would do is get a piece of plastic and some pieces of yarn of your choosing and hot glue them to the piece of plastic.
