They're totally adorable! Try making some for your 4th of July party! Here is what Joanna had to say about these sweet pinwheels.
"We used G45 Metal Brads, Happy Homemaker from Domestic Goddess, Dressed to the Nines from A Proper Gentleman, and She Sells Seashells from On the Boardwalk. The top pinwheels are 6"x6", the bottom 4"x4". It was so fun and easy, try it today!" -Joanna
