DIY: Wedding Pinwheels--Wheeeeee!

Matt and I skipped clever DIY decorations altogether (like origami cranes and bunting), but if you're looking for a new idea, consider pinwheels!

I got the idea from Jordan over at Oh Happy Day! (who got the idea from Kate Spade).

My students made pinwheels earlier this year as part of the Pinwheels for Peace celebration. You can download a pinwheel template on their site (plus they have a picture of a really pretty pinwheel made with colorful thumbprints).

I love this post...it's great that you can take a school project and turn it into a current and relevant DIY project for wedding budget-eers like yourself! Thanks for sharing!
