The Magic Versatility of a Pom Pom Ball

Originally I found this idea at Woman's Day Magazine to make yarn pom pom balls to place on top of my wrapped Christmas presents this year. I used their video tutorial and was surprised at how easy and cheap it was to make them. The more I thought about it the more ideas I came up with for uses of pom poms balls.
For holiday decorations, you can drape them from the fold of your stockings, use them as ornaments on your tree, or hot glue them together (different sizes) and make a fun holiday garland similar to this felt one from crate and barrel:



If you have a little girl like I do, you can hot glue a pom pom to an alligator clip and use it in her hair for a cute playful look:



Here is a video tutorial on how to make the pom pom's using more than one color and fastening it to the top of a baby's hat. So cute!





UPDATE: Check out this awesome pom pom wreath made by The Pleasures of Homemaking! Imagine if you made one all in one color like white or red!
