To create a steaming pompon from paper, you will need:

  • thin colored paper;
  • wire;
  • pliers;
  • scissors;
  • satin ribbon.

To create a paper pump, you can use color papyrus paper, napkins, corrugated paper, etc. The photo below shows a step-by-step instruction of creating a pompon from papyrus paper. We proceed to creating a pump of paper:

  • On the table in the stack we put paper in ten layers. From the selected size, as well as the number of paper layers will depend on the size and pomp of the future pompon.
  • We begin to put paper on the one hand in the form of a harmonica.
  • To make a second bend, carefully turn the sheets of paper and produce it to bend on yourself.
  • We repeat similar bends to the end of the sheet. In the process of folding, we try to make the fibrils of the same size.
  • When the harmonica is ready, fold it in half. This is necessary so that Pompon has a circle form.

  • We fasten the harmonica in the middle wire. To spin it, use the pliers. We do not drag the wire too tight, otherwise you can break the paper.
  • After tightening the wire can be cut in several ways. First - leaving one wire tip 30 cm, for which the pompon can be hung. The second - after winding the wire, briefly cut and glue the satin ribbon to it and make a loop from it.
  • With the help of scissors, give the form to the future Pompon. To do this, it is necessary to cut the ends of the harmonica, giving them an acute or rounded form.
  • After on the one side, the harmonic was cut off, it is necessary for the same way with the second. The only thing to be done still is to fold the accordion in half and note where the rounding begins.

  • We are placing both pompon's tail and proceed to giving the ripple rounded form. To do this, separate one layer of paper and raise them to the center to hide the middle of the pompon.
  • After you have soldered the first half of the pompon, turn it over and start to paint the second side.
