Pom-poms "angry bird style"

Pom-poms are one of those things my grandma taught me. 


She was a very crafty woman...even when she was really old (around 80), she helped the community hospital and poor families by making clothes and blankets for newborn babies. She even got an award for that!


Now i will make some pom poms with my kids, and we will try to make them look like angry birds

You need:


  • Cardboard
  • Scissors
  • Wool



1. Make two cardboard doughnuts and put them together. Tie the wool around them

2. Wrap the wool around the doughnut until it's fully covered
3. Here's the tricky part! Once it's done, cut the wool around the edges, between the two pieces of cardboard, holding tightly the center of the pom pom.
4.Pass a length of wool between the two pieces of cardboard and tie it together.
5.Remove the cardboard and give the pom pom a haircut if necessary!
Now, these are our angry bird pom poms

And this is a girl version, with two small pom poms for the ears.
