Fun Pinwheel Wreath

I went over how to make pinwheels in my last post and it really put me in a summery mood so I decided to make a pinwheel wreath to welcome warmer weather. Hopefully Mother Nature will get the hint. 

Materials needed:

Styrofoam wreath form

Yarn or ribbon to cover your wreath form

Scrapbook paper

Toothpicks--1 per pinwheel

Pony beads and foam beads

Glue

For each pinwheel you will need two 6 inch squares of paper. My wreath has 6 pinwheels.

Glue the squares together so both sides are decorative.

Cut each corner toward the center, leaving a 3/4 inch square in the middle.

Fold half of each corner toward the middle and glue in place. 

Let the glue dry and pierce an even hole through the center using a hole punch or a push pin.

Wrap your wreath with yarn or ribbon.

Insert toothpicks evenly around the front of the wreath and slide one pony bead over each toothpick.

Slide a pinwheel onto each toothpick and cover with a foam bead. 

Hang your wreath on its own or loop a piece of ribbon to hang it.

Enjoy your fun door decor and keep your fingers crossed for nice weather!
