Project Instructions

Step: 1

Paint foam wreath red; let dry.


Step: 2

Cut ten 5" squares from double-sided paper. If using single-sided papers, paste two sheets together back to back before cutting squares; let dry.


Step: 3

Use pencil to mark 2-1/2" lines from corners of paper squares toward centers. Use craft knife and metal-edged ruler, or other cutting tool, to cut paper squares along these lines; do not cut all the way to center. Bring left corner of each side down to center and secure with glue gun.


Step: 4

Punch ten 1/2" circles from solid red paper and glue to centers of pinwheels. Glue pinwheels side by side to wreath.


Step: 5

Glue ribbon ends together to create hanging loop; glue ends to top center back of wreath.


Tips

If your paper is not double-sided, simply glue two sheets together.
