Make your own pom pom Christmas earrings using pom poms and silver hoops! An affordable gift idea or simply make for yourself to wear this Christmas!
While scrolling the internet for Christmas gifts, I came across some Pom Pom hoop earrings which were right up my alley! As you know, I love a statement earring and pom poms! They were the perfect earrings for me.
But they were from overseas and the cost to purchase and pay for shipping was more than I was prepared to pay.
I decided I’d try and make a pair and thought I’d share how it went.
Materials for Pom Pom Christmas Earrings
I was hoping to get Sterling Silver hoops from Kmart, but they didn’t have any in stock. So I went standard silver plated hoops instead. Choose the cylindrical style as the flatter style of hoops are difficult to thread the pom poms on.
The pom poms were in the craft/scrapbooking section of Kmart. You can always make your own pom poms too.
Instructions
Simply work out how you want your pom poms to look on the earring and thread them on. I found the cylindrical hoops easier to thread on than the flat hoops.
When threading the pom poms, you need to find the middle part of the pom pom to thread through.
Also, think about bringing the most contrasting pom poms to the front towards your face. If you have long dark hair, put the darkest pom poms towards the back of the hoop. I made the dark green pom pom closest to my hair so the red and pink pom poms stand out more.
