What is a Felt Pom Pom Wreath
Felt pom pom wreaths are petite and lightweight which makes them wonderful for indoor décor or outdoor décor as long as they are protected from the elements.
The pom pom's are actually made out of felt and are about as cute as can be!
Pom pom wreaths are wonderful DIY projects to do with older children who can easily work with a hot glue gun and epoxy glue.

Gift Giving Suggestions
I think these DIY Felt Pompom wreaths would also be quite adorable for gift giving too.
Just add them to a decorative basket filled with
homemade cookies, a candle, and a soft throw and presto no more wondering on
what to give a dear friend, a neighbor, or an older child.

How to make a felt DIY Pompom Wreath
- Before ordering felt pompoms design the color of your felt wreath.
- Before gluing felt pompoms on embroidery hoop lay the pattern of the pompoms out,
- Begin placing felt pompoms on top of wooden embroidery and securing with a small amount of hot glue.
- Work around the embroidery hoop.
- Repeat the process by placing pompoms on outer rim of embroidery hoop and then on inner rim of hoop.
- Once all pompoms are securely attached, place a small amount of epoxy glue in between felt pompoms to completely secure the wreath.
- Dry overnight before hanging.
- Using scissors clip off any glue "threads," or felt that has glue on them.
- Attach ribbon and enjoy!

Thank you for joining me today!
That is so cute, Jemma. You know, I never thought of these colors working together until I saw them on a dear friend's blog post many years ago. Ever since then, I really like the colors. The red polka dot ribbon and candy cane and pompoms are so delightful on this felt wreath. I love everything about it. You did a fantastic job, dear Jemma.
