On my last blog post I mentioned that I had been making clothespin wreaths.
Here is how I made them.
Supplies
needed:
Clothespins
(approximately 100)
18
inch Metal wreath form
Spray
paint
Ribbon
This
is an easy craft with stunning results.
My
wreath form was green. I spray-painted it the color of my choice (yellow). You
can also leave it green. Then I attached my clothespins to my clothesline and
spray painted them.
Let
dry thoroughly.
For
my project, I painted 52 blue and 48 yellow.
Attach
the clothespins to the wreath form by simply clipping them on the inner three
rings.
When
put on properly, it will be a snug fit. No gluing is needed.
Make
a bow and attach. I cut out and painted a WV for mine. I attached the bow with
floral wire and glued on the WV embellishment.
Use
your imagination and craft a wreath for all occasions.
I love making these and they are fairly easy to make.
You could make them for every season - Fall, Christmas, Winter, Easter, Spring, and Summer.
Happy Crafting.
