LOL, she has half the idea, they are beautiful, except that I thought the inside of a pomander had potpourri or some even things like rose petals or lavender flowers in the center...maybe I am wrong.

Pomander Tutorial

I’ve got a little treat for you today...a tutorial for making a felted wool pomander! (Remember these little rosettes? I’ve been staring at them trying to envision them in a project. I was thinking how cute they would look all bunched up close together.) I’ve used felted wool sweater scraps, but I think it would also look nice with wool craft felt and other fabrics. Great for ornaments and holiday decor! Cute. Plus easy. Nice combo.

Coupla’ things to mention here. I’m trying out the tutorial in a slide show format to help eliminate a looong post with excessive scrolling. I had to add the text to the actual images, so I hope you can read it all ok. Let me know what you think of this format!
(edit: I just discovered that you can’t actually SEE the tutorial if you are subscribing to the feed, so please visit me over at my blog...its cool!)

She has the instructions and good photos at the link.

Mornin’ granny!

Thanks for the pings. Haven’t been able to get on all week. What’s up with that? Oh, well. :)

Mom just called—baby sister’s water broke last night and she’s at the hosp. Can’t wait! BIG GRIN!
