DIY colored pom-poms: 7 very original, creative ideas for Easter

With wool, you can do a lot of things. Even scraps and leftovers - perhaps left over from an earlier project - can be used to make fantastic creations. Among these are pom-poms: soft woollen balls, of every color and size, very simple to make and very useful for a lot of decorations.

To make these, just cover two circles of cardboard of the same size with a hole in the center with wool. Once this donut-like shape is covered, the wool is cut along the edge of the external diameter and, as if by magic, a small soft and colored pom-pom appears.

Here, we refer to decorations that can be made for the Easter holidays. Thanks to their shape and their variety, pom-poms are particularly suited for making Easter decorations. Some examples are shown below:

A beautiful wreath for the door, made with lots of yellow pom-poms which have been turned into chicks, is a simple, fun and a very original idea.

Another type of wreath that can be made is by covering the support hoop with colorful pom-poms and adding Easter and spring-themed symbols such as eggs and flowers.

And, again, for a special wreath for the front door, you can consider mixing string, felt and pom-poms. Just a little creativity and you can work wonders.

These very cute bunnies are very easy to make using balls of wool.

Similarly, it's easy to make a bolting bunny seen from behind to add to a plant pot, a floral arrangement or even a table centerpiece. 

Equally simple and fast is the construction of baby lambs and sheep (also being Easter icons, par excellence), to be used for any type of decoration.

And finally, returning to wreaths, a very quick one to make is covered with pom-poms and a pair of rabbit ears. It is a easy to make and will great on the front door.
