Any yarn hoarders in the house? (Yes, I am raising my hand!) Since I have ridiculous amounts of yarn, I am always looking for ways to use it up, particularly projects that don’t require any crocheting or knitting. That’s why I bookmarked this pom pom pumpkin tutorial by Kristen at Domestifluff. She also has a link to a pom pom making tutorial in case you’re not familiar with the process. Not only are these cute as little pumpkins in orange yarn, but with red or green yarn you could make apples, which are also great decor for harvest season! [how to make pom pom pumpkins]

Project estimate:

• Yarn, on hand or $1 and up
• Felt, on hand or about $0.33
• Twig, on hand
• Hot glue, on hand

Total: Free and up!
