Equipment

  • Scissors

Materials 

  • Yarn
  • 1 folded sheet of tissue paper

Instructions 

  • Take a piece of tissue paper that’s been folded into quarters and create a fan fold. Carry the edge forward and backward to create a corrugated effect.
  • Cut a piece of yarn the length you want your pom-pom to hang, plus a few inches. Tie this around the middle of the tissue paper in a tight knot. Snip off the shorter end.
  • Grab your scissors and cut the ends of the tissue paper into any shape you like (some options are in the explanation above).
  • Then, fan out both ends of the tissue bundle to create that characteristic pom-pom shape.
  • Voila! Vary the size, color, and length of these to create a truly unique decoration for any spot in your home.
