I knew as soon as I seen this super cute center piece I knew I wanted to make one, and here it is . I added a whole bag of Hersey Chocolate kisses filled with Caramel OH my these are sooo yummy. I used BALI BREEZE DS paper for my center piece and also for my windmill ( the windmill template is from the SU! demo only web site . I will see if I can upload the pattern for you) I also used the Heart from the ALWAYS stamp set ( which is a fabulous set ) and the windmill is attached to a straw ( pretty cool huh?)
I also use my BIG BITE ( which is the Crop-a-dile II which I also LOVE ) Click on the words BIG BITE above and view the video to show you tips on this fabulous new product ..
You can view the directions on how to make this centerpiece Or a upside down Cootie catcher is what my daughter calls them :-) HERE . Funny how things repeat themselves over the years. I remember making these in school with all my friends , BUT We never called them cootie catchers HUH? .. BOY has times changed Hee! Hee!
On a totally different Note: Postage stamps will be going up a penny in price to .42 cents on May 12th Click HERE to read more.
Ok once again I have a little Side note I want to share : We finished up our Bible study last night . We were studying Beth Moore's JESUS THE ONE AND ONLY for the last 10 weeks What an AWESOME study it was makes me all excited and wanting more of HIM .. But Hey Guess what ? Did you know Beth Moore has a BLOG? NO STINKIN WAY Beth Moore .. YES she does YAHOO!! click HERE to pop in and see whats going on with her .. You will love her & her blog . Now I am on my next journey and finishing the Book EXPERIENCING GOD you want to know something really odd~Ok its not really Odd since we know things don't "just" happen right ? Divine intervention thats what I am talking about .My hubby found this book in an abandoned hotel he was working at in Baghdad,I know OF all the places to find such an Awesome book HUH? There the book laid all by its lonesome on a table. Hubby picked it up and It changed his life.. Now he has passed it on to me to read . Its soo Awesome How God works. Ok enough of my super long blog post today.

Adorable pinwheel! Definitely doing this one! It turned out great!
I did a bible study (participated in) with the Experiencing God book and workbook. Very moving. I'll have to check out the other book you mentioned.
Have a great day!

Love the pinwheel! and I can't believe the crop-a-dile II!

We did the Experiencing God book in our small group a while back. I think it is impossible to read that book and not have it change your life. It is a great book!

That is so cute. You can change theme for weddings or baby showers. Awesome!

This is the cutest centerpiece that I have seen!! I have the pinwheel pattern, but I'm not exactly sure how to assemble it. A tutorial would be so-o-o helpful!
Thanks!

Hey Dawn! I LOVE Beth Moore Studies. Right now we are doing her new one called Stepping Up! It over the Psalms of Ascent. It's a good one! We Have done the Experiencing God study too! Have a great day!

Hey Sweetie,
This is awesome! You're right - we never call those "Cootie Catchers" either. In fact, those where the ones that could "tell the future" of one's life. Hahahaha... too cute. Ingenious idea of yours! Love the Big Chomper you got... wonder if it's something that I must add to my collection. I'll keep an eye on what you do with it - and that'll help me decide. =0)
I received your goodies the other day!!! What a sweetheart you are! Thank you sooo much, it tickled me to know that I have a great friend in you!!! Love ya lots, sweetie!!!
Hugs,
Jen

I love this centerpiece. It is awesome. Thanks for sharing the Beth Moore blog with us. I did not know about her blog and I love her. I am getting a self study form birthday. You are an awesome person and I love your blog. Visit it every morning.

At our old church in VA, we went through an entire study of Experiencing God..talk about a life transformation for so many of us. It was incredible sharing that with so many of our brothers and sisters, eventhough it was personal. There is a workbook that we did along with it that you might want to get and "do".
Beautiful centerpiece and great blog..thank you for sharing not only your "gifts and talents" but your faith as well.

Just love your site, it is so very inspiring. Have had so much fun making some of the cards and goodies with my grandchildren.
Posted by: Christine | November 16, 2008 at 05:31 PM
Dawn, I have just spent like the last 3 hours on YouTube watching some of your videos, then went to your typepad site, and have been reading for about an hour...you are totally awesome. I like watching your inspiring videos, you are so creative and perky, although I don't think that's the right word. And you love God and aren't ashamed to say it...you are awesome, awesome, awesome. I think we will become good friends!
