Ingredients
12-inchWire wreath form – the size of your choice
Yarn in white, pink, and blue – white for most pompoms, with smaller amounts of pink and blue
Small gold ornaments – I used 10 1-inch ornaments in mate and glitter gold
A cute wooden decorative piece – I used a tree and a deer hanger. You can use a merry Christmas sign buttlebrush trees, little houses, or anything you like and have handy.
Instructions
Step 1: Make the Pompoms
Start by creating your pompoms in varying sizes. For a snowy look, make about 60% of the pompoms in white, and the remaining in pink and blue.
Use a pompom maker to speed things up, or wrap the yarn around your fingers (or a piece of cardboard) to create the pompoms.
When you use a pompom maker, open one half and start wrapping the yarn around the half-circle until you feel it’s stuffed enough. Then move to the other half and repeat the process. Cut the yarn.
When you are done, close the pompom maker and cut through the center of each side.
Then cut a 8-inch string of the same yarn and wrap it around the middle of the pompom maker.
Make a tight knot. I like to go back and forth knitting on both sides of the pompom maker to secure it well.
When it’s done, open the half-circle flaps and separate both sides of the pompom maker.
Once each pompom is created, trim it to a neat, fluffy ball shape.
Repeat the process with different sizes and colors.
Step 2: Attach Pompoms to the Wreath Form
Take your wire wreath form and begin attaching the pompoms by tying them onto the frame with a double or triple knot on the back.
Arrange the white pompoms more densely around the wreath, especially on the outer edge, to create that snowy look.
Interweave the pink and blue pompoms sparingly for a soft, colorful touch.
Once you are satisfied with the pompom placements, move on to the next step.
Step 3: Add small gold ornaments
Tie together 2 small gold ornaments with a string of yarn. I used mate gold and glitter ornaments.
Place them in between pompoms and tie them on the back.
Spread them around the wreath as you like.
Step 4: Add the decorative Item
I used a tree and a deer hanger I already had from past years. Since it has a wire around it, I just had to tie it on the back at the top.
If you are using a wooden sign, make sure you tie it well either on the back or on the front.
If you are creating a winter scene, glue some cute trees and little houses on the inner bottom area of the wreath.
I decided to hang it directly onto the door hanger but you can also use a cute ribbon to hang it and add a little extra cuteness.
Step 5: Final Touches
Step back and take a look at your wreath. Adjust any pompoms to balance the colors and ensure fullness.
