Pinwheel Palooza

Over the past few weeks I've been working with a client in Australia who is hosting a pinwheel party for her daughter's first birthday.  It's summer in Australia and I can't think of a more lovely outdoor party for a tiny girl than a pinwheel party.  We started with the pinwheel invitations, in a pink and orange color combination (not shown here for privacy reasons) and went from there!

There will be pinwheels in the garden, hanging from the veranda, peaking over the frosted tops of cupcakes; even miniature ones frilling up the fronts of the goodie bags.  There are 130 pinwheels in all.  I couldn't have asked for a better break from winter than working on this summery fete.

Printable: More Toy Bin Tags

Remember the toy bin tags I made for my son a few months ago?  Well, when I shared them with all of you everyone liked them so much I decided to make a second sheet.  Hurray! 

So many of you had requests; thank you for sharing!  I couldn't do everything, of course, but I did choose the ones that the greatest number of people asked for: play dough, puppets, little people, puzzles, blocks, dress up, balls, games, art supplies and movies.

To use these tags, all you have to do is download the pdf and print.  You can then use them however you please.  I chose to punch a hole and tie some thread through mine to hang on storage baskets.

I'd love to hear about how you're using them.  Be sure to leave a comment and let me know.  And be sure to tell your friends so they can get in on the goodness, too.
