PomPoms from Fiona Taylor


Fiona Taylor of Kingfisher Yarns made these PomPoms, using her own special hand-dyed yarn.  They are lovely.  Thanks Fiona!

PomPom from Viv

Included in this general PomPom shot is a lovely from PomPom made by Viv, of The Hair Shop in Balfron.  It was beautifully trimmed!  Thanks Viv!

... and toddlers get in on the act too


Local Toddler Groups have got involved too.  These photos are some of the fantastic mums and carers at Killearn Toddlers who made PomPoms for us on Wednesday morning.  At the same time, the Balfron Bairns was meeting... making PomPoms! It is no mean feat to make a PomPom whilst balancing babies, so thank you much ladies!





PomPom from Lesley Keighley


Lesley Keighley handed in these PomPoms to add to the PomPom Blossom Festival.  We’re not sure if she was the maker or whether they were made by the people whose names were to go on the labels.  But thank you anyway – they’re great.

PomPoms from Balfron High School




 

 
Balfron High School has also been involved, which is fantastic.  Many pupils made PomPoms during their registration period.  Thank you so much to all who made one or more!
 

PomPoms from the MacDonald family


These PomPoms are the work of the MacDonald family.  The red really shines out against the green of the trees.  Thank you!

PomPoms from Balfron ArtWorks

The fantastic children who attend FAB Arts’ Saturday morning children’s art classes called ArtWorks made these beautiful PomPoms.  They had enormous fun trying out different yarns and bag combinations, as well as naming the PomPoms afterwards.

They create amazing work all year and it was brilliant to see them enjoy PomPom making so much.  Some of the older ones helped hang them too, whilst others have spent ages wandering the village looking for their PomPom!

Thank you so much!
