I love DIY tissue paper pom poms. They are SO cheap to make, versatile, and brighten up any space. Huge single colour pom poms can be a rather dramatic statement, whereas smaller, colour coordinating pom poms can make cute table decorations, place settings, aisle runners, chair decorations, tree adornments or create a stunning backdrop.

Here’s how to make pom poms from tissue paper…

You Will Need…

  • Tissue paper
  • Scissors
  • Fishing line/wire/strong string or thread

How to Make…

1. Take about eight sheets of your tissue paper and layer them on top of each other.
