Do you have a little one that wants to be Cheerleader for Halloween? I have a fun and simple tutorial that shows you how to make your own pom-poms! I made these at no cost with items from around the house. They even sound like real pom-poms!
DIY Pom-Poms Tutorial
Supplies:
4-5 plastic shopping bags per pom pom
Scissors
Stapler
Hot Glue Gun
Scissors
Stapler
Hot Glue Gun
Paper Towel or toilet paper tube
Paper or washi tape
Paper or washi tape
If using a paper towel tube, cut it in half. Cover it with either paper or washi tape.
Cut 1/2″ – 1″ strips from the top to about 1″ from the bottom.
Lastly, add a bead of hot glue around the inside top of the tube. Insert the rolled end of the bags into the tube and you’re done!
Follow the steps again to make a second pom-pom.
What a cute idea! I remember when I was a cheerleader for little league football way back in the day, I was suprised to see that our pom poms came all flat and smooth. We had to crinkle them and crunch them to make them nice and poofy. I bet you could do that with those to make them super full. 🙂 Great tutorial!
Wow, very creative!
Popping over from SITS roll call to say hello.
You are so clever! What little girl wouldn’t want a pom pom? So cute!
