Clothespin Christmas Card Wreath DIY
We get a lot of Christmas cards and I never know where (or how) to display them... until now! I wanted to come up with something pretty and functional, so take a look at my new Christmas card holder that I made out of clothespins and a floral ring!
This was simple to do and a lot of fun!
Materials:
- 12 white clothespins
- 12 red clothespins
- 12” floral craft ring
- Glue
- Clear gloss spray paint (optional)
- 20 inches of decorative ribbon
Instructions:
- Using the 12” floral craft ring as the base, glue on the clothespins alternating red and white, tips facing out. There are holes in the craft ring so I made sure to cover them with the clothespins. If you like them, leave them. :)
Use a strong glue to stick your clothespins to the ring. I used permanent Glue Dots (at least three per clothespin) but any heavy duty glue should work.
Optional: To give the wreath a shine, spray it with a clear glossy spray paint.
And finally, attach a pretty white ribbon for easy hanging.
I love the way this turned out, and we've already started using it at our house. It's hanging on our wall, and Lainey loves putting the cards in!
