DIY- Felt PomPoms

Two weeks ago I threw a baby shower for a dear friend who is 

expecting twin girls in October. My mother-in-law was a big help.

I wanted some elegant decorations so I made these pompoms 

Each pompom used about 1 1/2 yards of felt

The circles I cut out were about 2 1/2" in diameter.

I cut the felt in strips, 3" wide and the length of the felt 

(keep it folded in half)

That way when you cut out a circle you have two. 

I used straight pins to pin each circle to a 

4" styrofoam ball 

{the link leads you to buy pk of 36 for $96, they don't cost that much individually!}

I forgot to take pictures of the actual process. 

I just push the pin in the middle of the felt circle right into the styrofoam ball. 

Then repeat every 1/2" 

Here is a picture of the pompom with the rest of the shower

I had so much fun making the decorations.

I'll share the diaper cakes one day!
