Well I am a little embarassed to admit that I did try Martha's PomPom and my first try was actually quite bad! I am proud of my craftiness and was shocked that it was ugly enough to crumple up and begin again! I guess I did not pull gently enough to maintain some of the folds so it turned into a wrinkled mess!!
All the more reason to admire how gorgeous Pom Love's work is...as well as the stylists over at Martha Stewart!
My second round of poms turned out great but completion was cut short when my girls insisted on them as their new bouquets. They were thrilled!
I am having thoughts of how this can be transformed into something bigger. I am seeing masses of backlit poms hanging from my office ceiling. Or a sea of them forming a beautiful undulating texture on the bare wall behind my press. hmmm....
i'm off to try some things.
i'll be back...
