In this idea, the popular trend flower "Craspedia" is easily homemade! Learn here how you can make the pretty pompom flowers yourself and arrange them in a vase with the help of the VBS Pomponmaker set.
Making pompom flowers
The VBS pompom maker set consists of 4 pairs of templates. Select the two small pairs of templates and use them to wrap different yellow pompoms:
Each pair of stencils consists of two pieces that are clicked together. Starting from the center of the stencil, first wrap one half of the stencil, then the other with wool. Then, both halves are closed to form a ring. Now the wound wool is cut along the outer edge of the ring. So that the individual threads are securely fixed, a ribbon is pulled between the templates through the two pompom halves, tied tightly together and knotted.
Now the pompom maker can be opened. The finished pompom is removed and cut into shape with scissors.

How to create flower stems and leaves
The stems of the pompom flowers are made of florist wire. The wire can be easily shortened to a good length with side cutters. Then wrap it with florist's tape. This tape is coated with wax, so it needs to be stretched slightly to adhere on its own.Cut narrow leaf shapes from the florist crepe and attach them to each stem with a little more florist tape.
Now you can glue the pompoms to the stems with hot glue.
Design vase
Use this idea also immediately for another current decoration trend: self-designed vases.First, glue wooden rings with the transparent mosaic joint compound to the round bottle from the "Geo" set, allow to dry thoroughly and then dab in two layers with the Outdoor Chalky Color.
Tip: The Outdoor Color is particularly suitable for paintings that are exposed to moisture or are to be wiped off.
Now just arrange the flowers in the vase.
