Snowball Hair Tie

If you happened to catch yesterday’s post, then you know I am all about the last minute handmade Christmas stocking stuffers this week. We are talking 20 minutes or less here folks, and I mean it!

I made these quickie snowball hair ties this past weekend for our Santa 5 mile race, thinking they would look cute at the bottom of our braids, for me and the girls…and I swear I cannot stop making them now! LOL!!! I have like 10 already, and counting. I proceeded to make them in other colors for our family trip on Sunday to see Elf the Musical…because what could be more fun at Christmas then GIANT POM POM PIGGY TAILS? Am I right?! Lol – but seriously…they simply remind me of giant snowballs. And they make me so very happy. So why not share this whimsical hair tie. If something this silly makes me this happy, maybe it will make you happy too :).

Gah…look at that zipper! Cheap (but cute) Santa dress costume I ordered on Amazon. The girls love it, but the seamstress in me in not amused. Lol 🙂

Me and my girl were loving our snowball hair ties this past weekend, and she even wore hers to school for pajama day today!

I’d call that a total Mom WIN. And think they would make perfect Christmas stocking stuffers….

And PS…

***If you do not have pom pom makers on hand, you can try this method by That’s What Che Said. I have never tried this method, but have heard good things about it.
