Pallet for Home

Hello, everyone! 

My name is Amy, and my blogging home is Positively Splendid, a little creative haven where you'll find everything from simple craft ideas to sewing projects, and just about everything in between. I would love for you to stop in for a visit!

I am so excited to be taking part in Jen's Summer Social! Today I'm going to share a quick project with you to punch up your table decor during your next outdoor gathering.



These fun  pinwheel placemats are a terrific project to complete with fabric scraps you might have lying around!

step 2 / Use your scissors to snip about 2/3 of length of the lines you just drew, as shown.

step 3 / Add a dab of hot glue to the center of each of your trimmed pieces. Fold every alternating corner of your snipped sections up to this center point, as shown, pressing them firmly into the hot glue to secure them.

step 4 / Add a button or other embellishment to the center of each pinwheel to conceal the glued corners. Cut strips of ribbon or rick-rack that are the width of your placemats and adhere these to the left side of your mat with hot glue. Hot glue three pinwheels of descending size, from largest to smallest, along this ribbon, as shown.

Amy!! 

I want to make some RIGHT NOW!! 

Amy is one of my favorite blogging friends. We met for the first time at Blissdom and then we were able to hang out again at Creative Estates in April. 

There are so many reasons that I love reading Positively Splendid. One of the main reasons is Amy's love of color!!

I love her Boy/Girl Room.

And her pillows are amazing. So so cute!

I could spotlight every single project that Amy has made on Positively Splendid, because I love them all so much and you will too!! 

xoxo
