Last week I showed you these little place cards paper pinwheels that I made using old book pages and here is the tutorial. Wouldn’t these be cute in pink or white paper with wire angels or princesses as the placard holder for a little girls birthday party? I am sure someone makes something like that.
My sister bought these wire pumpkins at pier 1 a few years ago.
Directions
I take one book page and fold it in accordion style
Then another book page and do the same thing
Then I take both pieces and stack them on top of each other and staple right in the center.
Fan one side out and staple, tape or glue it together. I stapled it kind of crooked here but wanted you to see where I stapled it.
Do the same thing on the other side. One of the pages was ripped so it was a little smaller on one side but normally they are even.
Karins KottageWelcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!
