Holiday Pinwheels

December 17, 2011 by Holly Gagnon 35 Comments

     Welcome to Snow Much Fun Blog Hop with Getting Cricky!.  

For this Snow Much Fun Hop, I decided to make Holiday Pinwheels showcasing Kristal’s fabulous Winter Wishes Sentiments stamps.
Holiday Pinwheels

Holiday Pinwheels

Pinwheels are a simple and easy way to make a quick decoration or could be used as a centerpiece for a holiday table.
Holiday Pinwheels

The pinwheels are cut and folded from a 6 x 6 inch square. I glued the pinwheels on painted dowels then wrapped Christmas ribbon around them. I added buttons and twine and stamped each fold with various Christmas sentiments.

 

Thanks for hopping and Merry Christmas.

    Holly,
    I think you did an awesome job. Those really would look cute for a center piece surrounded by different christmas candy pics to put on a kids table would be incredible.
    Thanks for sharing.

    I absolutely love these. They remind me of candy canes. One of my favorite Christmas stories (besides the story of the birth of Christ) is the Legend of the Candy Cane. These pinwheels remind me of that story. Thanks for sharing it with us.

    I am coming over from Patches of Pink, Link Up Party. The Pinwheels are a refreshing decor for this time of year. They fit perfectly, don’t they? The way you stamped the words inside the blades is a new idea for me. I like that! Very Nice.
