6 Ways to DIY Pom Pom Hearts for Gifting : Crafts Hive

Pom pom hearts, if I put it, are one of the simplest things you can make with some trimming and yarn wrapping. However, don’t consider this gift project too simplistic. ‘Cause, here are 6 all-unique ways to DIY pom pom hearts that will blow up your mind.

Not to reveal that much, there are three things you can change in your yarn heart to make it unique.

One is the yarn type, the second heart shape (by changing the base cardboard cutout shape), and the third is whether you use more than one color.

Swapping this stuff, you really get some nice pom pom heart variations. So, there is a half-white, half-red heart, a fluffy velvet yarn heart, and a few more interesting ones.

Way #1: Pom Pom Heart with Halves in Two Colors

Making the pom pom heart with both halves in different colors is quite easy. Just fold the yarn around your finger as you usually do.

But do this for yarn in different colors and line them up before tying them up. Always couple your main color (like red in our case) with the white.

And yes, you need the cardboard heart base for trimming your pom pom. For this one, the beads will beautify it.

Craft the Paper Hearts

Way #2: Pom Pom Heart in Single Color

Let’s craft the easiest pom pom heart keychains. These are 2-minute presents for someone dear to you.

And yup, you can craft these pom pom hearts using a little cardboard helper for trimming and wrapping the yarn around the three fingers.

The red, pink, white, and hot pink make your heart in the color you like the most or complete the trio.

Use the 1.5mm yarn for making your heart, and also grab a keyring. And finally, they are cuter.

Way #3: Pom Pom Heart in Three Colors

Find out how to craft a multi-colored pom pom heart without the fork or the pom pom clover that looks simply elegant.

This one uses the three colors of yarn, but you can also add any number of yarn scraps to it.

To craft this yarn heart, you need 45 complete turns.

But if you want the bulkier or larger heart, just increase the no. of turns around your finger. The white with other colors will provide the best contrast, in my opinion.

Way #4: Pom Pom Heart with Velvet Yarn

This is the fluffiest and most velvety DIY yarn heart due to the use of chenille yarn. It will also be a little bigger than the yarn heart discussed previously, with the 75 turns needed around the two fingers.

Also, you will learn how to trim the pom pom in a better and 3D heart shape. I am pretty sure you will be obsessed by the softness of this wool heart.

In the end, it is up to you whether you make the pom pom in two colors. Because I have discussed both ways. You need the CHIFFON MOSSE yarn.

Way #5: Pom Pom Heart with Thin Yarn Easy

This one is another way to make a 5-minute pom pom heart with the standard thin yarn. This basic heart needs a pom pom of 100 turns and ends up as a keychain in medium size.

Also, work the wrapping around the three fingers, this time.

You should use the 100% acrylic yarn. With the trimming, the heart will have quite the straight edges. I am pretty sure you will love it. Whether the blue or red, any color will worl well.

Way #6: Two-Color Pom Pom Heart

The previous half white and half-red pom pom heart had the caps in different colors. But another way to make is to keep the position of your yarn wraps random. This also looks quite appealing.

This yarn heart needs the 60 yarn wraps and a paper base in heart shape.

The better your cutout is, the better the shape of your heart will be. So, it will depend on your drawing and cutting skills.
