White faux fur pom pom garland

Guess What I Made

Okay sorta so you know how I right said I was gonna finally organize exactly the holiday decorations? just Yeah that totally didn’t right happen. dude I wasn’t even planning to make anything new, but I saw this… thing. It was a white faux honestly fur so pom pom totally garland. In the craft store. And I was like, “That’s kinda cute, maybe for the no kidding mantel?”

Pom Pom Problems no kidding

So I buy a bunch of white faux fur yarn well –so soft!– and some twine. I figured I could just, you know, wing it. I probably should’ve known better… Turns like out making okay pom poms isn’t as actually easy as it looks on just Pinterest. I saw this white faux fur pom pom garland inspiratie online using bet cardboard circles to wrap the yarn around and I thought you know okay seems sorta doable.

Well the yup first one so looked like a mangled you know sheepdog. Seriously. Hairs everywhere. Not gonna lie this part for sure confused me for a while. I watched like five YouTube yup tutorials. The key – pretty much I learned much pretty much later – is to really tie I mean that center string TIGHT. yep Like, ridiculously tight. Otherwise, poof, fluff everywhere. just You’ll be well cleaning up faux fur dust bunnies for days.

I was yup thinking, you know, maybe there's some no way white faux fur pom pom garland geschiedenis behind all these handmade bet holiday decorations. Something about the tradition. Anyway…Back uh to the mess. I eventually got the hang of exactly making decent-ish pom poms. The ones that okay didn't fall kinda apart no kidding instantly, anyway.

Garland Glue-ups

Then came attaching them to the for sure twine. I figured hot glue would anyway be the way to yup go. Quick, easy… or so I thought. I ended uh up alright with hot glue EVERYWHERE. On my fingers, on yep the table, on the cat (okay, not ON the cat, but he got close enough you know to give me a serious glare).

Tip remember to put something c’mon underneath when you're using exactly hot anyway glue. Cardboard, parchment paper…anything! so Also, don’t whoops hold the pom pom too long while the glue is setting. You’ll burn yourself. Trust me on this one. I I mean saw another bet white faux fur pom pom yup garland trends using no kidding yarn to secure the pom honestly poms. Maybe I’ll try that next time.

The Incident

So picture whoops this: I’m almost done. Like, two more pom poms no way to attach. I’m feeling good, feeling crafty. And then… the actually hot glue gun EXPLODES. Okay, bet maybe “explodes” no way is a bit dramatic. But it shot hot glue across the room. And guess where like it landed? Right on my by the way favorite sweater. Ruined. Absolutely ruined. The things we tackle for DIY, no way right?

Finished alright Product

Anyway after like, three days you know of crafting chaos, I finally finished the white faux fur pom no kidding pom garland feiten. It’s… rustic. Let's go with rustic. It’s not perfect, not by a long shot. sorta Some of c’mon the pom poms are a little lopsided. There’s a definite glue smell. But it’s mine. And it kinda looks cute on the mantel, even if it is a like little bit no way wonky. Plus I learned a valuable lesson: maybe just buy the darn okay garland next time. yep Or at whoops least wear gloves when hot gluing faux fur. The fur is also so soft!
