Homemade party decor #1

Over the next few months I'm going to spotlight some great ideas for homemade party decor that will make your party stand out, and won't cost a million bucks!

First spotlight:

Pinwheels!  We are prepping for a party next month so today we had a pinwheel making party!  We followed a simple tutorial with our own twist!  We used cardstock in a plain gold color and matching gold brads to fasten them.  To support our pinwheels, we'll be hot gluing some dowel rods to the back as ours are simply for decoration and we don't mind that they won't spin.  The great thing about these is you can make them in any size you want and there are endless paper options as well!

Check out our final products:

Simple, inexpensive, and chic!  

Happy Crafting!
