mini pom-pom

[Must-Know] How to Make a Basic Pom-Pom #nursery #preschoolideas #crafts #craft #diy #artproject #preschoolideas #sportsday

Here’s how to make mini pom-poms.

Prepare raffia tape (suzuran tape), a paperback book to use as a base, and scissors.

First, wrap the raffia tape around the paperback about 20 times.

Cut at the bottom, thread a piece of tape through the top and tie it lightly, then slide it off the book and tie the handle section securely.

Finally, split (shred) the raffia tape, and you’re done.

The finer you shred it, the more volume you get, resulting in fluffy pom-poms.

Using different colors for left and right adds a personalized, cute touch.

Give it a try!

Uchiwa pom-pom

An eye-catching item! Let me introduce the idea of a uchiwa pom-pom.

It’s a fresh new item that combines elements of a handheld fan (uchiwa) and a pom-pom.

This time, let’s make a uchiwa pom-pom using suzuran tape and a fan.

You’ll need a fan, colored construction paper, double-sided tape or glue, scissors, and suzuran tape.

Attach thinly shredded strips of suzuran tape to the top of the fan, then adhere colored paper cut to the shape of the fan on top.

You can use just one color of suzuran tape, but combining colors will give it a brighter look.

Try choosing colors to match the mood of the event or competition.
