These adorable DIY pom pom toys from ‘Mr. Printables’ are incredibly charming toys that are inexpensive and easy to make. It might seem a little perplexing at first to get your mind around just how these cute pom pom shapes were created, but it’s a deceptively simple craft.
Making a pom pom only requires a few materials like something to wrap the yarn around and for the purposes of this DIY, cardboard works perfectly. Instead of creating a pom pom in a single color, the craft uses strategically-placed colors during the wrapping process. After the ball is sizeable enough, the pom poms can be trimmed with scissors to achieve angles for mountain peaks and the slope of a roof. Once you get the basic technique down, there’s no limit to what you can create.
