While looking through a craft shop recently, I approached a display with layers over layers of different colored felt sheets. It has been a while since I crafted with felt and it seemed tempting again to make a couple of small things. It looks like I will be making a lot of projects for the amount I purchased will last quite some time. I have already started sewing various items and will continue sewing as it has become an addition in the past few days. Making things out of
pom-poms has also been fun this year. With so much yarn in my stash, it seemed like a fun way to use some of it up.

Here you will find a few projects from the past plus new ones made recently. More projects will be added to the website on a regular basis so be sure to keep checking back.

Pom-Pom Tree
Pom-Pom Apple Tree

Pom-Pom Pig

The farm is no place for this adorable pig. He is in no mood to wallow out in the mud. Instead, he’d rather be decorating a child’s room. Pom-pom crafts are so much fun for kids and require minimal materials to create. Kids can be creative and come up with other animals to create. New ideas will be added soon to this website as well.

Pom Pom Lady Bug

Black cats are typical Halloween figures. But take a look at this little guy? Is he even capable of scaring anyone? No, he is just too cute and wants to be cuddled. The fringe yarn gives the cat a special soft effect.

Pom Pom Crow

This crow is all decked up in his straw hat and is excited for the upcoming fall harvest. He is already imagining how tasteful those delicious vegetables will be. The fringe yarn used to create this project is perfect for giving the crow a soft and fuzzy look.
