Instructions
Step 1
Draw two identical circles on thick paper or cardboard. The size of the future bells will depend on their size. The easiest way to do this is with a compass, but you can also take any round object and simply trace around it, such as the bottom of a glass.
Step 2
Cut out the resulting circles with scissors. In the center of each of them, draw a circle with a smaller diameter and cut a hole in their place.
Step 3
Fold the resulting rings together, start wrapping the resulting ring with threads. The easiest way to do this is to pull the thread through a large needle.
Step 4
To make a bell, you can take either one single color or several different ones, alternating them in any sequence.
Step 5
Wind the thread until the hole in the center is almost completely closed. Pull the end of the thread inside the resulting skein and tighten with a strong knot.
Step 6
Cut the threads along the outer edge of the ring, separate them from the cardboard, fluff the resulting pompom.
