Trendy Twine Tuesday-Pom-Pom Tutorial

Hi Trendy Twine Friends!
Are you ready for a Twine Tutorial?
Today, I thought I would share how to make cute twine pom-poms for your projects.
These are really cute and super easy!

Twine Pom-Pom Tutorial
Materials:
Twine
(Of course, preferably Trendy Twine!)
Fork
(I used a disposable fork I keep in my craftroom but any will do)
Scissors
Photobucket

Cut a piece of twine about 5 in. or so and keep it close. This will be used to tie the middle of the Pom-Pom.

Take the Fork and the Twine, wrap Twine around the fork 25-30 times.

This is what it will look like. Then take the piece of twine you cut and place it in the middle of the fork tines and tie it into a knot around the Twine.

After the Twine is tied securely, slide it off the fork.

Take your scissors and cut the two "loops" on each side.
Trim twine as needed.

Fluff your pom-pom until it the way you prefer it!
