Fun Pom Fish Craft

It’s not a stretch to say that I absolutely adore this Fun Pom Fish Craft! So fun, so colorful, and did I mention it’s fun? So fun!

So what makes this Fun Pom Fish Craft so much fun, you might ask? Well, aside from the big googly eyes that take over the cute fish face and all the bright colors from the poms, it’s just so easy and perfect for little fingers. Simply glue randomly small and even smaller colorful poms inside of a clean jar lid. We used the size that would come off a regular marinara jar. But any small jar lid would do. It’s a great way to reuse, make pretty, and find the fun in what’s normally thrown away.

Apply glue to the top of the bottle cap and adhere a large googly eye. We used regular glue, which takes awhile to dry and stick correctly. So you may want to use hot glue if you’re looking to play with your fish soon after.
