Pumpkin Wreath from Clothespins
STEP ONE
Gather all supplies. Full-size wooden clothespins can be found in the laundry section of Dollar Tree. Place 42 wooden spring-style clothespins in a gallon zipper bag, then add a half-dollar-sized dollop of Burnt Orange acrylic craft paint and two tablespoons of water.
Zipper the bag closed and knead the clothespins in the bag until all are covered in Burnt Orange acrylic craft paint. If working with kiddos, this step is perfect to do in the kitchen sink. I love Americana Acrylics from DecoArt because they have one-coat coverage on most surfaces.
STEP TWO
Cover a baking sheet with aluminum foil, unzip the plastic bag, and place the painted clothespins onto the baking sheet to dry.
For faster drying time, prop the wooden clothespins around the edge of the baking sheet. Once the tops are dry, turn the clothespins over to allow the bottoms to dry.
Once dry, the wooden clothespins look like they have been stained instead of painted, and I really love this effect. The easiest method to paint wooden clothespins! Dollar Tree has such a HUGE selection of materials that can be upcycled and good quality craft supplies which won’t blow your budget!
STEP THREE
In a well-ventilated area or outside cover the wire wreath form Rustic Orange spray paint. Set aside to let dry. You can leave the wreath form green because only a small portion of the wire shows between the clothespins. Regular acrylic craft paint will not adhere to the metal wreath frame, so this spray paint from RUST-OLEUM is perfect because it bonds to the metal.
Clip the wooden clothespins around the two inner circles of the wreath form, using the outer ring as support, so they won’t wiggle around.
Continue to clip the orange wooden clothespins around the wreath form. Fitting 14 clothespins into each of the three sections of the 8″ wreath form.
Once all of the clothespins are clipped on, space them equally around the wreath form. The clothespins can be secured with glue if hanging outside.
STEP FOUR
Cut one jumbo craft stick in half with scissors. Paint with Light Cinnamon acrylic craft paint. Set aside to dry and apply a second coat, if necessary.
Attach the craft sticks to the top back of the wreath with a glue gun and glue sticks. Cut two or three leaves from a silk stem with scissors. Glue to the back and front of the wreath, near the stem. You can use liquid craft glue for this project, but you will have to wait for it to dry.
STEP FIVE
Measure and cut three 12” lengths of natural jute twine with scissors. Tie in a bow and secure at the top front of the wreath with a glue gun and glue sticks. You can also use a ribbon, lace or other trim to embellish the pumpkin wreath.
