Pick Your Perfect Pole (Optional):

  • Plastic or Metal Stakes: For a sturdy garden display, choose plastic or metal garden stakes (available at most craft stores).

Get Crafting and Let the Fun Begin!

With a little creativity and these simple steps, you can create a delightful collection of pinwheel flags that will add a touch of whimsy to your garden or party. So grab your materials, unleash your imagination, and get ready to spin some summer fun!

Explore a variety of color choices and materials; we chose patriotic red, white, and blue, but feel free to make your pinwheels any color that suits your style. Utilize Cricut Design Space for your SVG, apply permanent vinyl, and get creative with your design. When you finish your project, share your craft with our community on Facebook or Instagram using the hashtag #CraftWithTraci. Let’s make this summer craft season unforgettable.

PLASTIC SHEET DIVIDERS – here are a few options – you will need 8 dividers per pinwheel, so if you want a patriotic one, count how many red and blue dividers are in a pack and get 2 if need be. Depends what you want to make.
