Felt Pom Pom Garland
Make your own wool felt ball garland for any holiday or special ocassion!
Yield: 1 garland
Cost: $25
Equipment
- 1 needle
Materials
- 1 piece embroidery thread I typically cut it after I've made the garland the desired length.
- 25 single white wool felt pom poms you can customize this to the length of garland you're making and with the colors you're using. I used 1 inch/2.5cm.
- 25 single green wool felt pom poms you can customize this to the length of garland you're making and with the colors you're using. I used 1 inch/2.5cm.
- 5 single carrot or novelty wool felt pom poms I used carrots for Spring, but you can use any speciality poms for your event or ocassion. I used 1 inch/2.5cm.
Instructions
- Line out your poms in the pattern you want to follow. I made a few different ones but settled on alternating green and white and putting a carrot after every 10th pom.
- Thread your needle, I always double knot mine.
- Push the needle through the center of one pom and pull it through to the middle or end of the length of the thread. Continue until you've reached the desired measurement or used your full pattern of felt poms.
- My garland used 25 white 1 inch poms, 25 green 1 inch poms and 5 carrot poms and was right at 55in in length. I recommend leaving a decent length of thread empty so that you can adjust the length of your garland if needed.
- Tie off the end of the thread with a piece of yarn to create a loop. You'll use this loop of yarn to hook onto the command hook.
Notes
If linking to a fireplace, place the command hook under the fireplace and use that to anchor your tied yarn.
Tip- if you don't want to buy poms for every season you can easily take your pom garland apart and mix and match the specialty poms to switch it up!
