How to Make Pom-Pom Christmas Tree Picks!

‘Tis the season to make pom-poms for everything to decorate, wrap packages and celebrate!  These pom-pom Christmas tree picks are the perfect way to spruce up a Christmas tree and give it extra dimension and personality.  The best thing about this project is that with the Red Heart Pom-Pom and Tassel maker, you can make FIVE pom-poms at a time.  That makes the process go quickly and effortless.  This post is sponsored by Coats and Clark but the ideas and the opinions (and the mad love for pom-poms) is my own.

This is what you will need to make the pom-pom Christmas tree picks:

• Red Heart Pom-Pom and Tassel Maker
• Red Heart Yarn
• Scissors
• Floral Wire

Time for Directions!

The first step is to make the pom-poms.  The amazing Red Heart Pom and Tassel maker creates a super efficient way to make lots of pom-poms in not a lot of time.

There are tons of yarns out there but I find that the Red Heart Value yarn is the best for mass production pom-pom making.

Once the pom-poms are made (three per pick), it is time to assemble.  Start by sticking a floral wire through one of the centers of a pom-pom then bending the end to create a hook.

Pull the hook through the pom pom and twist to secure it.  On another floral wire, add pom-poms to BOTH ends using this same method.  Then, twist that wire around the wire with only one pom-pom.

Bend to create a pick that has three pom-poms sticking out in different directions.

Stick the wire into the depth of the tree and bend the wires to create the look desired with the pom-poms.

If you love pom-poms as much as me, you are going to LOVE this project too!  Make a bunch of white pom-poms and turn them into an indoor snowball fight.  Design a jar or bucket container and label it with vinyl cut out on a Cricut Machine!

Yay!  Cheers to Pom-Poms everywhere decorating all the things for the holidays!
