Cute Pom-Pom Chicks


 

Check these out, too...

  • Signature Stamps
  • 3 dress-up crafts make babysitting a breeze
  • DIY sweet candy necklaces
  • Ridiculously adorable things to do with pom-poms (and how to make them)
  • 8 adorable Easter-y things to make this weekend
Old-school pom-pom crafts are fun to make and really adorable. Plus, they're super easy to make with the kids you're sitting for! We used a pom-pom maker to turn a wad of yellow yarn into a cute lil' chickie.

What You'll Need:
 

-Bucilla Doodle-Loom* (plaidonline.com)
-skein of medium-worsted yellow yarn
-yellow pipe cleaner
-felt scraps
-glue
-scissors

What You'll Do:
 

1. Following the directions on your pom-pom tool, make four medium pom-poms. Tie all four tightly together at their centers to form the body.
2. Make two small pom-poms, tying them together to form the head.
3. Cut a 5-inch section of the pipe cleaner, and bend in half. Push through the medium pom-pom to make legs. Cut two 1-inch lengths of pipe-cleaner, and bend around bottom of each leg to form feet.
4. Use craft glue to attach the slamm pom-pom to top of body.
5. Cut 1/4 -inch square of orange felt; glue to the front of the chicks' head for the beak. Cut teeny black circles from black felt, and glue just above the beak to make eyes. Peep-peep!

Just wrap yarn around your fingers that you hold out squeezed against each other. The size depends on how may fingers you wrap it around. Make sure you save some yarn on both loose ends.
Then, when you are done, take the lose ends and wrap them around the yarn on your fingers. It is tough....sorry :[ Tie the lose ends together and slip the yarn off your fingers. Cut the yarn at the loops on top and bottm and kind of part/shake the yarn into a ball. A pompom...hope that helps ;]
