Hi, I have found an easy alternative to making pompoms.. Have clients wrap wool around four fingers to an approximate depth of 2cm then carefully slide off fingers. Place wrapped wool over a piece of wool and tye tightly around the middle. (As u would normally) then cut around edges to make the pompom. Not as thick as a normal pompom. But well worth using with clients who have short attention span. Once pompoms were completed they were hot glued onto a 20cm bamboo garden stick and displayed in a vase.. Wonderful colour for spring.
