How to make a Christmas Pom Pom

I love parties, but I REALLY love Christmas parties. The food. The outfits. The coziness. #omggggggg. Yesterday I went back to my alma mater to go to the (legendary) SAE office Christmas party and I made this little hair pom pom with a strand of garland I had from a thrift store.

To make a Christmas pom pom you need:
Garland
Scissors
Needle and thread

It’s super easy. All you have to do is cut little sections of garland into 4” strips. (Or smaller if you want a baby pom pom.) Then you just stitch the centers together and trim the little poof! I used bobby pins to attach the pom pom to my hair, you can safety pin it to a blouse, too.

Christmas Party

(Sorry for the graniness. I took this pic from Facebook.)

(Miss Kelsey Rose on the right. ;)) I wore the pom pom with a black velvet dress that I bought at a Goodwill and a fake poinsettia that I made into a broach. My friend Clara is brilliant with her ugly Christmas sweater– if you are having a hard time finding one, just take a sweater that has animals or people on it and make santa hats from felt! Ingenious.

Also, this is what happens when you put two hot pink deer in the front yard at a college.

Maturity.

I call it “Maturity.” 😉
