Mondays Armchair Activity


Its monday again!! I hope you all had a good weekend... mine was still very full of snow and cancelled hotel and table bookings! So because its so cold and what not, today I have something wooly for you!!

Mini fork Pom Poms!!

This is a really simple, really easy way to make mini pom poms, that only take a few minutes!

Heres what you will need:
  • Scissors
  • a fork
  • wool



 1. Wrap wool really tightly around the fork, as much as you can without it all falling off!


2. Now cut a piece of wool and tie it around the wool you wound around the fork... like below:


3. Tie the wool in a half knot.


4. Slide the wool off of the fork, and pull the knot tighter.


5. Whilst holding your pom pom by the middle, cut open all of the loops. Making sure you get all otherwise your pom pom will look funny!



6. Now that your pom pom looks like a pom pom, all you need to do is trim off all of the straggely bits of wool, so that you have a neat little circle.



7. Keep making pom pom until you have lots and lots.


Now all you need to do is figure out what to do with them, add them to cushions? socks? hats?... or even your jumper!!!?!! It'll look just like something your nanna made you! hehe!

I will show you what I will do with this lot tomorrow, because right now I need to watch hollyoaks!

Have a happy Monday
