Add a pretty little garland to your party or maybe your office space for Valentine's Day, or any day! And YES you can make pompoms with TULLE or any netting.  The PattieWack™ Pom-Pom Maker is perfect, since you don't have to noodle it through a little plastic donut.  So easy, right? In a couple of minutes you can make a pompom.   Here are the 3 easy steps: 1.  I wound tulle/netting around the 3rd tier of the PattieWack™ Pom-Pom Maker, 10 times.  Be sure you don't wind it too tight so you can get your scissors in there to cut...

I'm crazy for these dangly bracelets with a little tassels, and I'm really crazy about how super easy they were to make!  They are just right to throw on with a t-shirt and jeans.  Plus, you'd never believe they're made with PattieWack™ Shrink Plastic, either.  They positively look like clear glass until you touch them, which is so cool.  And don't forget, you can make a dozen with just one sheet of shrink plastic. Keep in mind, you can personalize them any way you want.... your name or your friends name, a pet's name, doodle art, an inspirational saying, quotes,...

Pompom Pens are the perfect idea for Christmas gifts, and I've been working like crazy on pompom goodies to sell in our iLoveToCreateChristmas boutique next week.  My stash of yarn has been so great for all of these projects since they don't need to match each other, but they are so pretty with mixed bits of yarn in coordinating colors, don't you think? These are super quick to make and would be just the ticket for office gifts or stocking stuffers.  It only takes about 15 to 20 minutes to make one, and nobody will walk away from your desk...
