[Nfb-krafters-korner] Pom-poms

[Ramona Walhof]

You might be interested in my little pom-poms for juggling sets.  My son 
does a little juggling and recommended this and printed some instructions 
from the internet for beginning jugglers.  Then I made three pom-poms of 
three different colors and put them all in a plastic bag for a craft show. 
They definitely got a lot of comment.  I may use some for stocking stuffers 
for my grandchildren.  But now I have had lots of practice making pom-poms.
