[101videoprincess]

@swedishmandy bequiet

[96missymoo]

hey how did you make the multicolour ones same way????

[Eliseharris]

@96missymoo yes, just put a different coloured sheet together with the first so it's sort of two ply and carry on the same way.

[kayellwy]

I was looking for a how-to for making pom poms for my 4-year-old granddaughter. I loved your demonstration. Thank you! Made me smile. :-)

[Eliseharris]

@kayellwy thanks! happy it helped.

[airbornkid245]

Elise, About how many sheets of tissue paper do you use? Do you know about what size tissue paper you used...in inches? thank you. They look perfect for what I am wanting to do.

Thanks, Patti

[Eliseharris]

@airbornkid245 depends how big you want them. About five inches is good. Experiment to see. I had the big rolls, cut them in half and used most of a half a roll! You can use less or more (several colours at once is effective.)

[11digitalis]

[Eliseharris]

@11digitalis Glad to be able to help!

[Eliseharris]

@101videoprincess well it's over a year since I made them and they are still intact! Cheap to make any way.

[swedishmandy]

@101videoprincess girl this is just a small tutorial!!!!!!if u wanna make it much stronger try something out !!!

[greginglis7]

rah rah rah

[orangetwist99]

I like the technique, but I think it would work better with trash bags.

[Aterzelya]

there's an easier way ;D

all you need is a plastic bag then cut it in stripes then tie it together using an elastic band ! And it's better if it's thicker lol just saying because it's easier and your recycling it ;)

[DaisyxDoox1996]

rah rah rah (:

LMFAO

[ivanstepanovich]

I have to make pompoms for my daughter, and you help me. Thank you!

[Eliseharris]

Glad it was of some use!

[jgyrljeans4jesus]

thanks excellente!!!!!!!!!

[Usernamezj]

OMG THIS IS AMAZING!

[ecocouturegirls]

im gonna try making one for my halloween costume :)

[Eliseharris]

Excellent! Hope it turns out well.

[ecocouturegirls]

it turned out pretty good. :)

[TheIvi26]

that looks fake. i dont like it that much

[Eliseharris]

Well it's sort of the opposite of fake (and this is how they used to look). Rough maybe, I will give you that!

[Ape65]

Stick it on an eggplant or yam and you've got a little puppet.

[kitzc08]

1:15 :))))

[DoctorGregbert]

Can you actually use them for anything else, other than shaking at fixtures or using as a stylish hairpiece? :O

[CampKohler]

I noticed you slipped in the word garbage for we Americans. Is it used regularly (or at all) in U.K? We have no dust bins here; we are forced to substitute garbage cans. :-)

Hey, why not make a fake grass skirt out of the the stuff and shake it about a bit? That would be nice.

[Eliseharris]

We use the word occasionally - but mainly only because we are using it in an American way! I think most UK people know the US words for things even though we don't ourselves use them (eg sidewalk, elevator, truck, zucchini, cell phone, eraser). There are a lot of differences in useage!

[SeanFlynn]

you are so very wonderful and so beautiful

[anthwhite91]

I've never understood why its called crate paper.

[BoxChin]

It's actually "crepe" paper. It is pronounce "crape".  I suppose it does sound a bit like "crate".

[majesticmeteor]

Yea, now ya got props for your next Happy-Happy-Birthday-Song.

It's stereotypical cultural branding snobbery, I guess. But I envision UK Cheerleaders a bit different.......

"Shall I do a cartwheel?" "Don't be silly; our record is 3 & 17!"

"I'm doing one anyway; feel a tad out of practice, mind..." "That was a rubbish cartwheel; your legs were nowhere NEAR perpendicular to the floor. Players and total strangers seen your panties! Stand away from me; I don't know you!"

"Shake a Pom?"

[ttlindsgirl97]

LMAO!!!!

[tackertone]

Hey Elise, What about a stint on Blue Peter, You'd be Brilliant.

[kenbank]

Thanks to your clever demonstration, I am now suitably edified in the pom pom making enterprise . Now I can parlay this new knowledge into a multi-billion dollar business venture specializing in cheer paraphernalia. Move over Nike!

[oppositronic]

i am going to make some right now to use at the bus stop tomorrow and i also have a jar of pickle slices that's been left out in the sun with the lid off for about 2 weeks and i'm going to throw the pickles at people and cheer really really really hard

[lilazncutie29]

@oppositronic XD HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH!!! did ya record it??

[quantumdriven]

Certainly, bobby pin those pom pon to your hair, please!?!

Ah, it was a tease. Letdown.

[JerryLehane3]

I think I'll try to patent pyrotechnic popping pom poms that shoot sparklers into the air like 4th of July.....oops sorry British.

[FOSEEBOY]

You need a Beatle poster for your wall love.....

[Eliseharris]

I need a lot of things!

[MadBadVoodo]

Five Stars!!

[monicavm]

Reminds me of Mr. Dressup and his many creations. Thanks for bringing back memories!

[BarryAldridge]

I used to remember making them when I was kid and they were great fun to do.

Seeing this brings back memories.

[DragonsTooth]

The letter ' m ' looks a little bit like an ' r ' and an ' m ' together. I almost expected Elise to be making a Porn Porn (or a Porn Pom, or Pom Porn).

:-O Porn Porn tiddly Porn :-O

P.S. I apologise for this message.

[DarkDennis1961]

2 bits

4 bits

6 bits, a dollar,

all for Elise,

stand up and holler

Yaaaaaaaaay

[4ofSwords]

Very exciting and 'cheerie'! Is there some event you and your friend are going to cheer for? If not, what a great creative project.

[Eliseharris]

It was a thing called the 'Animation Decathalon" - they had a sort of big computer game animated from kids' drawings projected onto a wall and people played it by pounding hard on two pressure sensitive pads. They had activities while they were waiting.

[4ofSwords]

That sounds fun! How was the storytelling (Anthology)? Would be interesting to get some video of that.

[quantumdriven]

I know!

I've begged Andrew J.L. to post Anthology in an MP3 player at his MySpace blog(at least his bits), but he wont.

I'm guessing Anthology is a closed shop if you're not there.

Oh, well...

[4ofSwords]

I can understand that. It's live and personal and video can take something away from that. I didn't think it was possible, just wondering whether it was considered, or how it was considered.

[Steve7508]

hmm where's that unsubscribe button?

only joking, Elise, I like your creativity and enthusiasm.

[leapoffaith20]

Elise, the thought of you dancing arround in a cheerleaders outfit has made me VERY happy :)

[hunkamonkiman]

Oh dear, Elise has lost it.

Sounds like you had fun, though.
