I’m really looking forward to the 4th of July this year, it will be the first year ever that I won’t be so overwhelmed with work that I can actually host a party and have some fun! I really love pulling out my pinwheel crafts – the kids just love them and they are really easy and fun to make. For more creativity, here is a blank pinwheel template (along with more colorful printable pinwheels!).

These 4th of July pinwheels would make a great party activity, camp craft, or simply summer rainy day fun!

Thanksgiving Paper Crafts: Turkey Pinwheels

I’m so ready for the holiday season to be here this year! My work load is lighter than it has ever been, and that means = more time for crafting!! I have some really cool Thanksgiving crafts up my sleeve right now – I can wait to do them with my kids and get them posted.

This idea for Turkey pinwheels came to me yesterday when I was out in the car running errands. Is it just me, or do you also get your best ideas at the most inconvenient times, too? Like in the shower – or while I’m cleaning and covered in grime… seriously.

Paper Crafts: Printable Pinwheels

Summer’s here, and I’m feeling l-a-z-y. Which ironically enough stresses me out more than getting stuff done – does it do the same to you? So I had a whole slew of great wizard crafts ready for Harry Potter week, and pffft – I’ve gotten nothing done. :(

Thankfully I was browsing through some old files today and came across my cute Christmas pinwheel craft from last year, and it was a super-easy update to do more with a spring / summer theme – so here they are!
