Pom-whatevers

I always thought these were called "Pom Pons" but I found many people call them "Pom Poms."

In any case, did you ever have these on your skates?
With or without jingle bells?

Tee hee - just a blast from the past.  I remember making my own, which I was very proud of, and kept on my skate bag or car rearview mirror for the longest time after I stopped wearing them.

omg yes!!  I had them on my roller skates when I was about 9, so about 21 years ago.  I had bright pinks ones.  I couldn't skate with them now on my iceskates because they would hinder jumps.  They are super cute!
