To make these beauties, check out this quick, simple tutorial HERE. These don’t have to be exact– the messy creative look is so inspiring & makes a great base to layer your paper pieces on to! Once you have your crepe paper pinwheel created, time to embellish it ! :D

Just take some paper piece & start layering. I usually start by choosing one main piece for a focal point & work off of that using similar colors.

I used Aleene’s tacky craft glue to adhere my pieces because it gave me a bit of time to move it around slightly before it dried. The crepe paper also gave me a great porous surface for things to stick to. Plus it dries clear!

The way I approached this project is knowing that I wanted each of my pinwheels to be a mini work of art all by itself with a little message of its own. That way I could just grab one & stick it in my Bible when the scripture was right. The wordfetti pieces that come in many of the printables are perfect for this! And on all of the ones I created here, I used Shawna Clingerman’s digital set All Around from the Print & Pray Shop!
