Winter Pom Pom Wreath DIY

November 16, 2017
I first fell in love with Pompom wreaths when they made their debut at Anthropologie. All of that gorgeous yarn and glorious texture in extraordinary colors truly delighted me.  However the price of them did not, so I set my mind to making my own DIY pompom wreath and I am happily sharing the supply list and instructions with you today!

Pom pom mania has taken over our home!

Sitting all cozy on the sofa with a warm fire blazing and glorious skeins of beautiful colored yarn in a basket is crafting bliss.

History of the Pompom

I have always been intrigued by the color, texture and multiple uses of the pompom and if you are too you might enjoy reading the history of the pompom. 
I dabbled in Pom Pom wreath making a few years back when I made this DIY-Pom Pom Winter Wreath. It was the prototype for what I have made now.

Making a Pom Pom wreath is easy-but it does take time.

I usually save my pom pom projects for the Winter months when I can snuggle up by a warm fire, listen to my favorite music and sip on some hot chocolate or hot tea.

 

Once you discover the joy of making yarn pom poms you'll discover endless possibilities!

  2. Morning Jemma,
    These are adorable! I love the colors! The one I started is all ivory....but since I only have 1/4 of the pom poms completed, maybe I will add some color! Your colorful wreaths have inspired me to dig out my pom poms and complete my wreath which i started in March 2016. Lol! Thanks for the inspiration sweet friend. You sure do beautiful work! Xx
