- clothespins, craft paint, fine tip art paint brush, round art paint brush
Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
Paint clothespins with first layer off craft paint. I chose two shades of pink and layered them. Clip clothespins onto wax paper to dry.
Step 2
When dry, add a top coat of sparkle craft paint.
Step 3
When the sparkle is dry, use a fine tip paint brush and paint on lettering to your clothespins. You can add a couple drops of water to really thin out your paint to have a better flow from your paint brush. I painted the word “sugar plums” onto mine, because that was the Christmas tree theme my ornament exchange partner is decorating her Christmas tree with.
Step 4
Use your finished clothespin ornament clips to hang up holiday decorations!
