Reusing Poms
I’m not entirely sure on the subject of this post, but I wanted to get the point across. Paper tissue poms, or pom poms, tissue balls or paper pomanders…however you nom them, are a great decoration; you can get lots of miles out of them.
For instance, the beautiful wedding I coordinated on Monday used pink, green, and brown poms. All the shades of pink had been previously used at birthday parties, and were my contribution. When asked about where the poms would go after the reception, the bride said that they would go to a friend for their wedding. We bagged them up and sent them on their way.
They’re easy to refluff (a lot easier than fluffing in the first place, especially if there are a lot of layers of tissue), and the varried shades gave the whole look a nice depth. Pictures to come!
Another event I helped coordinate used green and white poms for a baby shower. Those went home with a mom-to-be for a nursery, which turned out adorable.
