To Make Pom-Pom Stick
Using 65mm Clover Pom-Pom Maker, make a pom-pom using approx 5g felting wool. Tie thread in a half knot around the middle of the completed pom-pom, leaving just enough slack for positioning the straw centrally.

Carefully remove pom-pom from Pom-Pom Maker.
Insert approx. 1cm of the paper straw through the centre of the pom-pom.
Tie knot tightly to secure paper straw. Cut off excess thread.
Put some craft glue around the top of the straw.
Shape pom-pom into a neat ball, concealing the top part of the straw.
Trim pom-pom as required to achieve a smooth, round ball shape.
Attach ribbons with craft glue to finish.
