My kids love to make pom poms. Infact they were fighting over the Clover pom pom maker last night as I was making dinner. And I fully expect the pom pom making to continue this evening, which is of course just fine with me. Not a terribly creative activity, but the act of making something, anything, is a wonderful thing and always something to be encouraged. So I think I'll get out some more colors and be on standby to cut the pom poms off the pom pom maker and give them a little hair cut.
I do think that pom poms hung from a stick (or even a wire hanger?) make perfectly cute holiday decor, so let the pom pom making commence in your house! Of course if you have just too many pom poms when the excitement dies down, you can always use them for great gift toppers or make some of my pom pom flowers for your table. Have fun!
