day 48: crafty kiddos/ minnie mouse birthday pin wheel garland/banner!

Posted on by
Standard

MY TAKE:

FROM PINTEREST:

1. Cut two strips of paper in equal size. 2. Accordion fold both. 3. Place both pieces together on the table, face up. Push them in, and turn them on their side to staple them in the middle. 4. Fan them back out, and secure their sides by taping them. Double sided tape works like a gem, and scrap book paper is super fun, as are music sheets, and pictures decorated by your little ones.

• Difficulty rating (1=easiest, 5= way too hard!): 2
• Would I do it again? yes, it was pretty easy, very cute, and could easily be done for any holiday. There are so many great cardstocks out there that have great themes to theme: Halloween, Christmas, birthdays, you name it!
• What I would do differently: my DCWV paper was almost out, so I only could do one pink pin wheel! I will either take it out for Morgan’s birthday, or go buy some more pink to add into her Minnie Mouse theme!
• Items used: DCWV Glitter Cardstock pack (Michael’s), twine (Hobby Lobby), scissors, tape, stapler, and clothespins

MY TAKE:

  • Project: Day 21: crafty kiddos/ Christmas tree snowflake window decor
  • Difficulty rating (1=easiest, 5= way too hard!): 1, but I will say that there’s a difference between the snowflakes you made when you were in first grade, and actually trying to make them look semi decent; it takes a lot of patience.
  • Would I do it again? yes, it’s a quick and festive way to spruce up any window or glass door, and inexpensive!
  • What I would do differently: maybe try origami paper as one of the sites had said.
  • Items used: We used construction paper for the colors which was very thick, and white copy paper which worked pretty good. We got our inspiration from some of the sites above; the 6-point snowflake tips seemed the best!
