They say treat toppers but I'm not sure what they "make" any ideas or assembled pics?

The square one looks like it would make a pinwheel.

I think the link you posted is the square pinwheel die, isn't it?? (I think it's strange that they would even try and sell a pinwheel die; it's just a square with cuts from the corners almost to the center, then you fold the corners over and stick them down).
I'm guessing that however you're supposed to assemble them, the idea is that you could use them on a card, or attach them to a stick for puttin into a cupcake, cake, etc. (maybe that's where they got the name 'treat topper' for them from??) It's odd; even on the Spellbinder's website Idea Gallery, I don't see anything that looks like it would have been made with the round one. Maybe you would make it similar to the square one, and fold over and glue a corner of each section?? sort of like a rosette crossed with a pinwheel??

I bought this set at Scrapbook Expo. I have yet to actually use it. I guess I need to get it out and play with it. I love pinwheels!

The square pinwheel die looks different that just a square. I would love to see examples. I have the Jenni Bowlin pinwheel punch and an older 4" Quickutz pinwheel die. Since they are always out, they are quick to use.

I couldn't find any online examples of the square one so if someone can share pics that would be great

I think the circle is sort of like a rosette, but I couldn't find any photos. The bars radiating from the center are fold lines, though. The website does say that. I have both the QK 2" and 4" dies. I know the 4" die has holes in the corners, so you just assemble them using a brad. I've made a lot of those over the years!
