Have you gotten snow yet this year? Here in good ole Missouri, we probably won’t see any of the white stuff until after the new year. So to quell my longing for snow day activities, I created this DIY Snowball Fight!
It took me a couple of tried to get the hang of making these fluffy balls of fake snow. But once I got it down, I was able to whip through them.

Materials needed to create your own DIY Snowball Fight
Yarn
Pom Pom Maker (2 different sizes in a pack for $8.99 at Michael’s but I had a 40% off coupon!)
Scissors
Embroidery thread
Bucket
Adhesive vinyl (optional)
Begin by pulling out the arches on one side of the pom maker. Start wrapping your yarn around the arches. {I wrapped mine pretty thick so they would be extra fluffy!}
Close that side of the Pom maker and open the other arches. Continue to wrap your yarn as you did in the step above. Now you are going to cut down the middle of the yarn.
Once it is cut, it will look like this.
{I think it looks like the mouth of Bumble, the Abominable Snowman, in Rudolf – LOL}
Next, place the Pom maker between your knees. Take your embroidery thread and wrap it through the middle (where you just cut). Tightly knot it. Repeat a couple of times for good measure.
Once you are certain it is secure, carefully open the arches.
Gently, pull apart the Pom Maker and trim the excess thread and yarn so your pom looks presentable.
Continue making poms until you have enough to have a really good snowball fight!
