Create Yarn Pom Pom's at home

Pom Pom's are a basic craft staple. They're remarkably easy to make yourself. It takes less than a minute to make a pom pom. Most crafters will have the supplies, because all you need is yarn and a fork.  Making these pom pom's are also an easy way to use up leftover yarn that's just hanging around the house.




All you  need to make a pom pom is yarn, a fork, and some scissors.

If you want to make larger pom pom's, you'll need a bigger fork, like a salad serving fork.
