Paper pomponsPaper pompoms - a wonderful decorationfor any holiday. Playing with color, you can make such pom-poms for New Year, Christmas, Easter, Halloween, birthday or wedding! And they are very easy and relatively quick to make. Crepe or corrugated paper, as well as tissue paper, are usually used for pom-poms. The latter option is more airy, with a slight transparency and elegance. But it is also more expensive. The choice is yours.

Pompons from paper do it yourself: job description

You can make them one-color or two-colormulti-colored pom-poms. For colorful options, simply lay out several different sheets of paper to form one pom-pom. So, our sheet of crepe paper is rolled into a roll. We measure the middle of the roll and, without unrolling, cut it in half.Master-class on creating pompons of corrugated paper do it yourself Master-class on creating pompons of corrugated paper do it yourselfNow you need to unroll the first roll andfold it in half and then in half again, i.e. to get four layers of paper. Cut the edges to get 4 separate sheets - their size will be 25x50 cm. When I made a paper pompom for the first time, I made a mistake: I folded the sheet into 6 parts, and each rectangle for forming a pompom turned out to be 25x33 cm. Experience has shown that the rectangle should be much longer. The 25x50 or at least 25x40 cm option is ideal.Master-class on creating pompons of corrugated paper do it yourself What paper do pompons makeWe cut the second roll in the same way - we will get a stack of 8 sheets. We cut off a small piece of wire - no more than 25 cm.Master-class on creating pompons of corrugated paper do it yourselfWe fasten the sheets with clamps.Master-class on creating pompons of corrugated paper do it yourselfWe decorate both edges of the rectangle along its long parts - we cut out petals, sharp or rounded.Master-class on creating pompons of corrugated paper do it yourselfWe fold our rectangles like an accordion (remove the clamps in advance).Master-class on creating pompons of corrugated paper do it yourselfOn the finished accordion, we measure the middle with a ruler and put a mark - for example, with a simple pencil.Crepe paper pomponsAt this mark, we tightly wrap the accordion with wire and tie it into a knot.Balls paper pomponsWrap it on top with a ribbon, on which there will bea ready pompom is hung. Why is one ribbon not enough, and is it necessary to first fasten it with wire? If you tie it with a ribbon, there is a high probability that the finished pompom will fall apart. And we cannot allow this!Crepe paper pomponsThis is the blank we have for a paper pompomturned out. If you need to make pom-poms at home and then take them to the celebration site where you will have a little time, you can limit yourself to preliminary creation of blanks, and you will straighten them on the spot.

For the accordion, detach the top layer on both sides of the ribbon tie and lift them up, as shown in the photo below.Paper pompons for wedding Paper pompons from corrugated paperWe do the same with the remaining leaves - approximately up to the middle of the stack.Paper PompomsCarefully turn it over, without crushing our flower to the table.
