These are the so very cute pom-pom Christmas ornaments my students and I made during crochet and crafts lessons in school. They’re easy to make. Simple to make. And best of all, cheap to make!
The materials:
- 2.5cm/1inch styrofoam balls
- 20mm pom-poms in whatever colors you like
- crafts glue – glue that dries reasonably fast
- beads
- bit of yarn
- scissors
How to make the ornaments:
This is really simple. It can’t go wrong. Unless you glue your fingers together…then it will go wrong 😬
In the pictures below you’ll see different ways for the colors. All in 1 color or mixed. It’s really up to you which colors you use and how you mix the colors.





It’s really easy isn’t it? Try not to get glue on the visible side of the pom-poms or on yourself.
You can make these ornaments with much larger styrofoam balls and pom-poms. You will obviously need more glue then so make sure you get enough before you start.
