Pinwheels

An evening spent watching TV and relaxing with a glass of wine has allowed me to create some pinwheels. I took squares of scrapbook card and folded the opposite corners to each other to form a diagonal cross.

I then measured two-thirds from each corner, made a mark and cut to the mark.

I then folded every second corner into the centre and pinned them together.

The most fun bit was hammering the pin into the wooden dowel.

I've placed a pearl bead between the paper and the dowel to allow it more freedom. A smaller bead will look nice between the head of the pin and the paper.

Fly little pinwheel!
