Well autumn seems to have arrived 3 weeks early this year. Despite the warm weather last week, the leaves on the trees have started changing colour…
spiders have been making their presence felt…
and we have started harvesting our apples!
I do like this time of the year and have to say it’s probably my favourite season. I love going on walks outside at our local National Trust properties and walking through woodlands seeing what wonderful things God created.
This weeks make is a result of one of those walks and a very necessary tidy up at home. I had come across a bag of pom-poms that I had made a while back when I got my new pom-pom makers. You know when you get a new crafty thing you just have to try it out well I made quite of few pom-poms and since then they’ve been waiting for their purpose and here it is. I had a brainwave to make an autumnal display with the pom-poms by tying them to some twigs and popping them in a vase.
Luckily the pom-poms still had their tails on so I used these to tie them onto the branches (glue could be used if ties were cut off).
It’s something different, I only hope my cats don’t attack it!
Have a good week everyone.

love pom poms
What a brilliant idea! I’ve only ever seen twigs arranged like that at Christmas, with loads of little Christmas decorations on them. Hmm, what other crafty things could go on twigs…
LUV fresh autumn apples! I’ve shared this cute pom-pom display post on my facebook page 🙂 ❤ ❤
Thanks for sharing it.
Great idea! I love autumn too but I really don’t like spiders!
My cats have fun trying to catch the daddy longlegs.
Very cheery – really must try out my new Pom Pom maker.
LOVE your pompom tree! My practice pompoms will be a garland around my conservatory this Christmas!
I love this idea ❤️
looks really cute, i’m a big fan of little trees like this i do a branch/mini tree for easter and autumn etc love decorating using home made bits and bobs. These poms look fab x
Thanks, it was fun collecting the twigs in Stormont Estate – we’re so lucky to have something so fabulous within walking distance of our house.
