Program Fans

Has anyone made their own program fans?  I would like to try and tackle this project myself, but I need help!  Any suggestions or advice on what supplies you used, where you bought it, or how you put it together would be greatly appreciated!  If not, I will just have to spend the money to get someone else to do it.  Thanks ladies!!!

    If you mean the paddle fan type, I made mine and loved how they turned out. I have a picture of them un-assembled in my planning bio under "DIY". I used double sided scrapbooking tape and craft sticks from Hobby Lobby. With the tape, I outlined one side of the program, put a bit of tape on the top half of  the stick, stuck the stick in the middle with half the handle coming down from the program (obviously) and then put the other side on. I went over the edges pressing it all together well.

    It was super easy, but a bit time consuming because I was obsessive about lining them up perfectly. As a warning: the tape was SO sticky. It sucked if I made a mistake because it was almost impossible to pull them apart. But that was also a good thing because I knew they wouldn't fall apart!

    Maybe try posting this under the DIY (do-it-yourself) Board. They make a ton of stuff over their and are really friendly on telling you how they did it!
