heather bailey's flower pinwheels for mom



Have you seen Heather Bailey's flower pinwheel pattern? Her's makes a pretty poinsettia, but we thought a few of these would make a fun Mother's Day bouquet! Stacy made this gorgeous one with a few sheets of Amy Butler double-sided paper.

Check out Heather's easy pattern. All it takes is paper, eyelets, brads, ribbon a dowel, a wooden bead and a 12” piece of 18-gauge wire. Cheaper than roses, and they last all year long! This would also be a fun spring project to do with the kids. My kids are probably too little to help, but they'll love to make them spin when they're done!
