Pom Pom Hair Ties with Doodle Pantry

Hello all and Happy Thursday!  I'm still making a few last minute gifts, and today I'm sharing some pom-pom hair ties:

I used Doodle Pantry's Snowman Cheer for my tie holders - just to decorate them up a bit.  I used the pre-colored version of this cute little snowman.  I can't wait to see these in Beanie's hair!!

The pom-poms are super easy to make and tie onto the new elastics.  These don't take more than 5 minutes each to make.  I'm showing how my little cardboard has a couple holes (using my cropadile) with little slits leading to each hole to hold onto the elastic.  I have a few other handcrafted items I hope to share soon.  Thanks for stopping by!

This meets the following challenges:

• Just for Fun - Christmas
• Ladybug Crafts - Winter/Christmas
• Crafting for All Seasons - Anything But a Card/Christmas
• LOTV - Anything But A Card
• Through the Craft Room Door - Always Anything Goes
