book-page pinwheels :: diy

Needed: 

about 5 book pages [sheets of music are also a good idea]

a small piece of cardboard

a hot glue gun

1. Begin folding the pages fan style

2. Punch a small hole in the top of the piece of cardboard, that way you will be able to hook your pinwheel on a nail or tack to hang it up.

3. Take one of the folded pages and place it in the middle of the piece of cardboard. Glue it there. 

Continue gluing the the folded page ends in a circle. *disclaimer: watch your fingers okay.*

4. Once you have the entire circle glued on the cardboard, cut out a circle from an extra page and glue it on the center to cover up the gap. add any little decorations.

[i.e. little gems, glitter, faux fur, a photo, or even a short quote.]

[I took my scraps and bunched them together to make a rosette style center]

Have Fun!
