We have created a paper spinner base. First, color two sheets of the same pattern front and back. After coloring, cut one piece with scissors and attach it to a piece of cardboard or thick paper. Next, cut off the circle along with the cardboard and attach the backing paper to the back side as well. Finally, punch holes in the two circles in the center and thread the string through the holes with a binding needle for a sewing needle to complete the process.
