How to Make Yarn Pom Poms for Your Wreath

Yarn Poms are probably one of the easiest and fun crafts you can do with yarn! My kids even like to join in when I make them.

First, you will need some yarn. I used a medium weight yarn for my example called Vanna’s Choice. It is a 100% acrylic yarn, easy to work with and quite inexpensive, which means it’s perfect for a DIY project.

See below for the exact yarn colors I used.

Vanna’s Choice in Dusty Purple, Pink, Colonial Blue, Linen & Cranberry

Next, you will need Pom Pom Makers. I used two different size makers for my wreath, but you could use all one size or even do four sizes instead! Using all different size makers would make a beautiful and multidimensional wreath.

Take a look at the Clover Pom Pom Makers below that I used.

If you need help with using a Pom Maker you can read my post “here” about how to use the Clover Pom Pom maker machines. I promise it is super easy to learn.

In no time, you’ll have the pom poms like I’m showing below! Check out the image!

How To Make A Diy Pom Pom Wreath

Follow the pom pom wreath instructions below to make your very own DIY wreath!

Use the directions on the pom-pom maker to create two different sizes of poms of various colors. If desired, mix the yarn to give some of the pom poms a sprinkled color look. Make about 50-60, depending on the fullness of the desired wreath.

After making all the pom poms, and before gluing, place the pom poms on the wreath, mixing up the sizes. Have fun with this part!

Once the placement of the yarn poms has been figured out, glue them in place with the hot glue gun.

Once they are all glued in place then you are ready to hang your new pom pom wreath! I used a command hook but you could use an over the door hanger too.
