When you are cleaning out your craft area and come across a HUGE bag of unopened pom poms, you have no choice but to sit down and come up with a creative craft with them. Hence – today’s Paper Gumball Machine kid craft idea came to life!!!

As I was looking at the colorful bag of pom poms, it just reminded me of gumballs.

After brainstorming a bit, I came up with the printable you see below and BAM here we are today! I hope it inspires you and you take advantage of the FREE file below!

Just download, print and have children add their pom pom gumballs to the printable for a super creative craft idea! Perfect for the upcoming Valentine’s Day holiday or just because moments!!!

Happy crafting my friends!!! #gluedtomycrafts
