For my brothers upcoming wedding we have been plenty busy with arts and crafts. And I (being the artsy one in the family) have been helping to make all sorts of fun projects. Number one on the list... Pinwheels! I am obsessed! They are fun, colorful and easy to make. You can use them for all sorts of things, we are going to use them to line the walk-way where the guests make their way to the reception. But we had an idea to fill a vase with them, instead of flowers, or somehow make them to go in your hair! If you are feeling creative, or a little bored all you will need is...
1. Paper (We used scrap-booking paper.)
2. Scissors
3. A push-pin
4. A wooden dowel
5. Creativity and a little arm strength
|
Fold into halves diagonal. |
|
Cut about 2/3 of the way down along each of the creases |
|
take every other point and poke it onto the pin |
|
once you have all of the points attached stick the push pin through the back of the paper at the center. |
|
then, use that arm strength, and push the final product onto a dowel |
|
finished! |
|
Just one of the many colorful projects we finished! |
