A great alternative to balloon decorations are bright pom-poms. Two master classes will tell you how to create pom-poms from tulle with your own hands. You can decorate anything you want with pom-poms - napkins and bonbonnieres, shoes, hairstyle, you can make air garlands from them, you can decorate the bride's room with them.
Such pom-poms can be made from any fabric, it is better that it is not a very loose material. They are especially light, airy and refined from tulle.
We will look at two ways to make fabric pom poms.
The first way exactly the same as when making pom-poms from threads
You will need:
- for 10 pompons - 2.2 m of fabric with a fabric width of 1.5 m
- wire or strong thread
- fishing line or thread for hanging pompons
- scissors
- rhinestones for decoration (optional)
Step-by-step instruction
1. Cut a strip of fabric 15 cm wide and 2.2 m long. Wind the strip onto a piece of paper or cardboard folded several times. The width of this cardboard will be equal to the diameter of the pompom.
2. Carefully peel the cloth off the paper.
3. In the center, tie with wire or thread.
4. Cut the sides of the bow on each side.
5. Fluff up the pompom.
6. If the pompom is not very straight, trim the edges a little
7. For decoration, glue rhinestones.
8. Tie a fishing line to the middle of the pompom
9. Hang
Second way
You will need:
- for 10 pompons - 2.2 m of fabric with a fabric width of 1.5 m
- thread in fabric color + needle
- threads for hanging pom poms
- scissors
Step-by-step instruction
1. Cut a strip of fabric 15-20 cm wide and 1.5-2 m long (the “fluffiness” of the pompom depends on the length of the fabric)
2. Fasten the thread from one end of the tulle tape in the center and start sewing with a basting stitch.
4. Pull the fabric when all of the tape is pulled together and secure the thread.
5. Sew on the hanging thread
