There are many ways to make a windmill, and here is a simple way to make a windmill:
Materials required: Discarded magazines or cardboard.
Scissors. Glue.
Pigment. Steps:
Prepare materials: First, prepare discarded magazines or cardboard. You can choose a patterned paper to make a windmill that looks more beautiful.
Cut strips: Cut a magazine or cardboard into strips of paper of moderate width. You can decide the width of the strip according to your preference, but not too wide or too narrow so as not to affect the turning effect of the windmill.
To make a fan blade: Glue one end of each strip of paper in the center to form a circular fan blade. Make sure that the distance between each fan blade is equal so that the windmill will be more stable.
To make the stand: Choose a sturdy wooden or plastic stick and insert it into the center of the windmill. Make sure the bracket can stably support the entire windmill.
Coloring: Use paints to paint the windmill in your favorite color. You can choose the color according to your preference, and you can also add some decorative elements to the windmill, such as stickers or decoupage.
Assemble: Assemble the fabricated fan blades and brackets together to ensure they fit together tightly.
Adjustment: Finally, adjust the angle and height of the windmill so that it can better accept the wind and turn up.
Precautions: Pay attention to safety during the production process to avoid scissors and other tools from hurting yourself or others.
Make sure that the bracket of the windmill is strong enough to support the entire windmill and remain stable.
When coloring, pay attention to even application to avoid uneven color.
Pay attention to the angle and height when adjusting the windmill so that it can better accept the wind and turn up.
Once you've made it, you can place the windmill on the windowsill or balcony of your home and let it turn with the wind to add fun and color to your life. At the same time, you can also add your own creativity and imagination in the production process to make a unique windmill work.
