Nothing screams spring like pretty pinwheels. To me, they indicate warm weather and cool breezes – pretty sweet if you ask me. You can make pinwheels that stand alone and decorate your lawn or you can use them to decorate a wreath or garland. Step outside the box and use unexpected materials like Post-It Notes and vintage book pages to create your own versions of these delightful spring crafts. When you’re finished you’ll be ready to embrace the glorious aspects of spring and summer.
There are so many fun pinwheel craft ideas and you don’t have to be an expert to create them. Use metal wire and beads to create your own Pinwheel Jewelry Plant Stake. This is a great way to get rid of odds and ends while still creating something substantial that you can display all season long. If you’re hosting an outdoor gathering or party in the next few months, you’ll want to decorate your space to fit the mood. Make a bunch of Polka Dot Paradise Pinwheels and add them to your front lawn or backyard – they add a pretty touch to a sparse space. This project is super easy, so you can ask the kids to help. If you just want to add a cool, crafty touch to your space, make a bunch of paper pinwheels and glue them to a wreath form. A Pretty Paper Pinwheel Wreath looks good all year long and never goes out of style.
Spring has sprung, so it’s time to celebrate. Capture the fun and excitement of the season with a few pretty pinwheel crafts. Big or small, your creation is sure to put you in a good mood. Grab your favorite supplies (fabric, paper, or something else entirely) and unleash your creativity!

Thanks so much for including our pinwheel boutonniere! Happy Spring 🙂
Thank you so much for the feature!
I love that each pinwheel is so unique and has its own personality. And I never would have thought to make a wreath from pinwheels, but I’m thinking maybe a Mother’s Day gift?? After all, homemade gifts have so much more meaning than something store-bought. And it’s too bad that Easter just passed because these pinwheels would also make a great addition to an Easter Egg Hunt. Little kids would love carrying these around with them and making them spin while searching for colored eggs! They would also make a fun and easy Easter craft.
Thank you for featuring my pinwheel cupcake topper! -Kelsey 🙂
