If you take a look at the world around you, pom-poms in all different shapes, sizes and textures are becoming so prominent!
You can find them in fashion, on dresses and scarves…
and home decor in the form of trim for pillows and coverlets.
Of course, they can also be found in the crafting world! I found these adorable pom pom animals you can create with Martha Stewart HERE.
Just in time for spring, pom-pom chicks to add to a pretty spring basket of daffodils.
Pom-poms don't need to just be made from yarn or string, you can use tissue paper too. Wouldn't THESE make fabulous party decor, especially if the tissue was stamped with Polka Dot Basics first!
I thought I would challenge our design team gals to see how they could adapt pom-poms to their paper crafting! You just HAVE to check out their results!!!
I hope all of their efforts inspire you to experiment with pom-poms yourself! They add so much whimsy and texture to a project, you never know, it may be a supply you start reaching for on a regular basis! Happy stamping!
P.S. Have you been itching to see a peek at our exclusive limited edition anniversary set that will start shipping out this month? The Design Team gals and I have been busy creating a special gallery for all of you!
You can check it out —> HERE
This special gallery also contains the full reveal of the stamp set in its entirety, so if you wanted to wait and keep it a surprise you may want to wait until your package arrives to stop by.

I have always loved Pom-poms … do you remember making them to put on yourice skates!!!
My Godson who is almost 13, surprised me before the Holidays, by making a comment that “Pom-Poms Rock!” [meaning they are cool]… all the kids here have them on their winter hats, on their tennis shoes, up along the sides of their winter boots ~ and I’m talking about 11 yrs. old and up 🙂
And now I’m going to have to go and check out Martha Stewart’s blog for those stunning tissue flowers ~ pray they are easy to make. HA !
I just love all the pom pom cards – what a fun idea – so colorful and snazzy!
and I adore the anniversary set! !! I am so excited that I’m going to get this set – your samples are super! what a wonderful variety of stamps this has!!!!
These pom pom cards are so cute, what a fun challenge! And I’ll have a peek at the anniversary set, no spoiler for me since I won’t be getting one this year! 🙁 But what a fine treat for those who are, and so nice of you to do this.
I LOVE this set Nichole – THANK YOU!! Can’t wait until it arrives! Goddy, goody, goody…
Those pillows were great!
Thanks for sharing the anniversary set with us! It looks awesome! I can think of so many uses for it and now I can hardly wait for it to arrive. Thanks for showing your appreciation for customers!!
Yay for POM POMS!!!
And I am SO sad I only discvored PTI late in 2008! UGH!
The things I could do w/that Anniversary set!
GORGEOUS CREATIONS PTI Team!!!
Oh my stinkin’ cute Anniversary set! YAY! I can’t wait to get it. :0) BTW, I LOVE what everyone did with the pom-poms!
Many, MANY thanks for the Anniversary Set. As so many have said before me “I can’t wait to get my hands on it”.
I am really looking forward to receiving my anniversary set. I was wondering…do you have a tea stamp set? I see a tea cup in the anniversary set but I would love to see a victorian tea set of stamps on PTI. Thanks for all you and your design team do!
Oh I LOVE pom-poms! They are so sweet and fun!
Nichole,
I think you have a very inspiring website here! Your work is amazing!
I was wondering if you could help me out with storage… I read under “the studio” on this site, “To the right of my workspace I keep all of my embellishments. They are in plastic compartmentalized boxes ($1.95 ea. from Wal-mart) by color. ” Would you be able to post as a comment what brand those boxes are and their dimensions? I have been searching for similar storage for a while, and have only found a $5 box that comes close to what I need. What you have seems just right and is much cheaper! Thank you!
Thanks for inspiring me to use pom poms!!! Love them!
so are we getting pom poms in PTI colors???!!!!
I like the pompons. They give the items a different look.
