Greetings, dear readers internet blog. I never get tired of introducing you to the master classes that you can give if you are preparing for a wedding, significant day special charm. Special also because you yourself attach your own skillful hands. The lesson is devoted to the manufacture of multi-colored fan wheels, the so-called turntables!
An interesting thing is a fan turntable! especially considering the fact that it doesn't spin at all. The second name is a fan wheel. Be that as it may, as a decorating element at a wedding (at a holiday), these multi-colored paper circles delight guests so much that everyone is delighted with them. Making fan turntables is not at all difficult, see for yourself. And the pleasure received from both the process and the result is a huge sea!
To make paper fan turntables you will need:
1. Sheets of thick paper (cardboard) or drawing paper (can be colored);
2. Glue gun or tube of glue;
3. Scissors;
4. Tassel;
5. A tube of water-based paint, if you want to give the fan a special color, and a jar;
6. Punching stamp or hole punch, if you want to apply a pattern to the fan;
To make a spinning fan, you need to select and prepare paper. I wanted to cover white paper beige, give it a touch of antiquity. Why I took a tube of water-based paint, mixed it with water (so that it was not saturated bright), applied it to the sheet with a brush and evenly distributed it over the surface with a rag. However, you can not bother yourself so much, but just immediately choose colored paper at your discretion.
Fold a sheet of paper into an accordion. Make bends by 2-3 cm. Fold three or four sheets in this way.
Take a glue gun (a tube of glue or even double-sided tape) and glue all the quarters in a full circle.
The edges of the fan wheel can be given an attractive look. Why use scissors to round the edges. And having resorted to a punching stamp or a hole punch, apply an ornament to the fan-turntable.
If we want paper fan wheels were on a stick, then you can glue them one by one with a glue gun to it. And if we want the fan turntables to hang on the wall or become a decoration somewhere else, then we need to cut a small circle out of cardboard and glue it to the core of each accordion element. This will allow the pinwheel to keep its shape.
Make fanciful ornaments on the wall from fan wheels, combining them according to color scheme. Make boutonnieres! Or connect with colorful ribbons to form a garland. You can not stop at this and remember the master class on making

The main thing is that parents should take care in advance to make this holiday bright and unusual. If you are celebrating a children's birthday at home, then follow these simple recommendations for decorating a room with your own hands.
Balloons
The easiest and win-win option for decorating a room on a child's birthday is multi-colored Balloons.

Bright and fluffy paper pom-poms will instantly give the festive room an elegant look. Unlike balloons, these pompoms will never burst above your head, and they look pretty stylish.
To make one pom pom you will need:

scissors;
thin wire or strong thread;
regular thread to hang the pompom.
Fold the prepared sheets of paper into a neat pile, and then into an accordion. The width of the fold should be about 1.5-2 cm. Process the edges with sharp scissors (the edges are rounded in the picture below), then take the wire, bend it in half and put the resulting “accordion” of paper into it. Tighten the wire exactly in the middle of the craft. Gently unfold the paper accordion, separating each leaf and forming a fluffy pom-pom.

Glue them together to make a long piece.
Wrap its ends inward and glue. Get this ring.
Press down on the edges, guiding them towards the middle.
Cut out a contrasting or matching flower circle from colored cardboard and glue it in the middle. Everything, the simplest option is ready.

Cut out 5 identical triangles from colored paper, which will be the petals of an accordion paper flower.
Turn one triangle towards you with the wide side. And if they are the same, then any.
Fold it into a small, about 5 mm, crease.
Bend the resulting part in half, and its wide side should be inside.
Glue both sides to make a petal.
Turn all other triangles into such petals.
Glue the petals together by applying glue to the sides. It is convenient not to complete the circle at first, but to glue the sides and press so that the paper is properly fixed.
