Methods and apparatus for creating and applying pom poms to objects and surfaces

A kit for creating pom poms comprising:

• a plurality of pellets wherein each pellet comprises a plurality of fiber strands of substantially the sat length arranged in parallel along their transverse lengths, herein the fiber strands are arranged such that at least one end of each fiber strand lies in a plane to form a plane of fiber strand ends and wherein the at least one end of each fiber strand are coupled together with an adhesive;
• and,
• a plurality of adhesive segments arranged on a releasable surface wherein the adhesive segments have a profile that is about the same as a pellet cross section.

• and,
• a plurality of round adhesive dots arranged on a releasable surface wherein the dots have about the same radius as a pellet of the plurality of pellets.
