Inside: How to make a Pom Pom Wreath DIY style that will fill your doors in style for any occasion.
One of my favorite things about wreaths is how they can be made with any theme for any occasion. Though they’re popular around Christmas mostly, you can use one as decoration throughout any time of year.
There are also so many different styles and techniques used when making wreaths that you never get bored of them. I mean it, I look up so many wreaths a week I cannot keep count, and I can safely say there is always something new that I haven’t seen. Today I am going to show you my newest wreath obsession!

Supplies
Here is the list of supplies you will need for this project. You can sub out any of these for something more your style if you wish; it is completely up to you. But you will need some version of each thing below.
- Pom Pom Maker
- Yarn
- Scissors
- Foam Wreath Form
- Garland
Step One: Make the Pom Poms
Okay, this step is going to take the longest. But I will say it is so fun and super satisfying to make each and every one of them, so it balances out in the end. For this, you can follow the directions on the pom pom maker for more direct instructions, but I’ll walk you through the process to get you started.
First, open the maker and start wrapping the yarn around one side. You will end up wrapping it anywhere from 100-150 times. The thicker you make it, the more fluffy your pom pom will be. You will repeat this on the other side. Then you take a separate piece of yarn and wrap it around the center, tying it off.
Then you take your scissors and cut the yarn where it is wrapped. You then open the Pom Pom Maker and trim the excess yarn string. There you go! You’re own pom pom!
Step Two: Wrap the Garland
Next, take whatever garland that you chose and glue it to your foam form. I did this by starting with one end and wrapping it around the wreath so that it was all covered. You can use any kind of garland that you want, but the ones that work the best have little bristles. This way, you can nestle the Pom Poms into it. It gives them more things to hold on to.
Step Three: Glue the Pom Poms
Now you get to glue on the ornaments. Add as many as you like, but I covered mine as much as I possibly could. I like to go overboard, but it ended up looking really good, so it paid off. When you are done, pick up the wreath and see if anything is loose. If it is, add some more glue and secure it better.
Then you can take a step back and look at your handy work. You did it! I hope you loved this pom pom DIY as much as I did.
