Clothespin Snowflake

in Christmas, Crafts on 12/02/21

Every Christmas season we make a few new ornaments for our tree. I love pulling out our passed projects and thinking back on the memories of that year. I try to make something new too. We have painted walnut shells, hand-stitched felt designs, folded ribbons into stars, and more.

Our first craft this year is a clothespin snowflake. This one requires some extra time to let the wood glue dry. You could glue them together on one day and paint them the next day. I am not a fan of glitter, but I put on a brave face and carefully proceeded. I love how this turned out and how it shines on our Christmas tree. The best part is that it does not shed any glitter! I’ll show you how…

Supplies

  • Clothespins
  • Paints (acrylic)
  • Brushes (simple set)
  • Varnish (acrylic)
  • Palettes
  • Wood glue (any brand works)
  • Drill (love our Ridgid drill)

Go get creative and make something you love!

Today I did my own plumbing work for our shower re Today I did my own plumbing work for our shower remodel. I was afraid to do it, but I spent a lot of time learning and preparing. The more information I learned the more I felt capable. The soldering made me nervous and my hands felt a little shaky, but I committed no matter the outcome. I followed all the steps (even if they aren't shown in this tiny video). John encouraged me and showed me how to turn our water supply off for the first time. This was a good exercise in being willing to try something new. I'm really proud! We turned the water on and it's holding tight! On to the next task. 🚿
