What you will need:
Do
Cut the felt into a triangular shape with a rounded bottom edge, 1½ inches tall and 3 inches wide.
Roll the felt into a cone about 1 inch wide and secure with hot glue. Trim the top flat so it looks like an ice cream cone.
Hot glue a stack of two different colored pompoms onto the opening of the cone.
Hot glue the middle of a ball chain to the top of the pom-pom.
Hot glue a small neon pink pompom on top to make a cherry, overlapping the ball chain.
Using a brush, apply decoupage glue to the tops of the pompoms, if using. Sprinkle with glitter and press gently to adhere. Let it dry.
Cut small rectangles out of cardboard. Drill a hole at one end. Write “Supercool” in the tag; Pass the ball chain through the hole and close.
Whatever you need:
Wrap the center of one side of the pompom maker with about a finger's width of yarn to form the center of the flower. Wrap loosely so the thread doesn't have too much tension.
Lightly wrap this section with a layer of another color yarn.
Lightly wrap this section with a layer of another color yarn. (Do not cover the entire side of the pom pom maker, but cover the second color completely.)
Finish wrapping this side of the pompom in another color.
Using the same color yarn as in Step 4, wrap around the other side of the pom-pom. Both sides should have the same amount of yarn.
Reassemble the pompom maker and cut in half (following the instructions included with the product).
Wrap a piece of yarn around the middle of the pom-pom, giving it a few turns until you can pull the pom-pom tight. Tie with a few knots to secure. Remove the pieces from the pom-pom maker and cut the pom-pom so that it is round.
To make the stem, wrap a stick in turquoise green thread and glue to secure.
Glue the pom-pom flower to the top of the stem.
Using scallop-tipped scissors, cut 2 sheets of cardstock for each flower. Write “Best Buds Forever” on a sheet of paper with a marker and tape both sides of the stem.
Do
Get personalized pencils with the phrase “You really scream!” (Or use regular pencils and make a flag out of tape with the phrase.)
To make a homemade pompom (like the ones on the mint and orange crayons): Wrap the yarn around two fingers about 15 times. Slip the thread from your fingers and tie it tightly in the middle with the same thread.
Open the ties and fluff into a pompom, trimming as needed. (You can mix yarn and make larger or smaller bundles to get different sizes of pompoms.)
To make a multicolored monster using store-bought pompoms (like the ones in the pink and red crayons), cut a medium or large pompom in half and glue it to the other half.
Glue on additional pompoms if desired.
Hot glue the top of the pencil to the bottom of the monster.
Hot glue googly eyes and little pompoms for features.
What you will need:
Do
Cut the cardstock into a circle about 5 ½ inches in diameter.
On the bottom half of the card, make a face using stickers. Use whole stitches for cheeks. Cut stitches to create a semicircle for the mouth and a triangle for the nose. Draw the eyes with a marker.
Glue pompoms above your face, using various colors and sizes to form a stunning hairstyle.
Write “Love is in the hair!”
What you will need:
Do
Cut 1 sheet of cardstock into a rectangle about 4×5½ inches.
Using scissors, cut a sheet shape from cardstock in a different color, slightly smaller than the rectangle. Fold the sheet in half lengthwise to create a center crease.
Open the sheet and glue the folded edge to the card diagonally.
Glue an uneven row of 6 pompoms in varying colors along the crease to form a caterpillar.
Glue 2 googly eyes onto the caterpillar's head.
Write “I just thought I’d bother you…”
What you will need:
Do
Cut the cardstock into a circle about 5 ½ inches in diameter.
Glue the large orange pompom to the center of the card and glue 2 small orange pompoms for the ears.
Glue small fuchsia pompoms around the lion's face for the mane.
Glue small white pompoms and a small fuchsia pompom for the mouth and nose.
Color 2 googly eyes with the marker and glue them for the eyes. (To make it easier, place them on a piece of tape attached to a table.)
Write “Wild About You!”
