Aren't these cute? I saw these flowers on Juli Buhler's blog and I thought they would be darling on clothespins.
You can clip them to anything!
Stamp on several layers of tissue paper. Punch with the 5 Petal punch, layer and crumple a bit. I used Mini glue Dots to attach them to DSP covered clothespins.

Saturday was opening day of the Winter Carnival in McCall, Idaho. There were a lot of people there for the Mardi Gras parade and I've never seen so many dogs with snow boots on! It was a lot of fun! They were throwing Mardi Gras beads and candy and all kinds promotional items from their floats. It was so cold that the candy was frozen!
Oh so cute. I love making the little clothes pins too. I use them for everything! Thanks so much for sharing your great SU ideas. I am a huge fan and just love your ideas.

Cute clothes pins and great pictures. I love the boy's hats, too cute. Where did you find them? The boys look so cute in them.
ReplyDeleteLove the clothespins! How do you adhere the DSP to the clothespins? Do you cut the strip into two pieces or do you just cover over the slot with the wire?
ReplyDeleteThanks,

Clothes pins are cute - but thanks so much for showing the mcCall pictures. I grew up in garden Valley, Idaho and the Winter Festival in McCall is very near and dear to my heart.
