Heart Clothespin Valentines
My daughter and I have been making clothespin crafts lately {airplane clothespins & caterpillar clothespins}. I had some left over and thought it’d be fun to make heart clothespin valentines. When you turn a heart sideways it looks like lips so I printed little tags that say “Smooch. Muah. Kiss.” Here is how I made them.
Materials:
- Clothespins
- Scrapbook paper
- Paper cutter or scissors
- Mod Podge
- Paint brush
- Computer and printer
or scissors
Instructions:
I picked some pretty pink scrapbook paper with a light print, cut them to size with a paper cutter and glued and sealed them with Mod Podge. This is the bottom of the clothespin. I let them dry completely.
I printed “Smooch. Muah. Kiss.” on it in different fonts on the same pink paper and I cut them out to fit on the clothespins for the top half.
I put Mod Podge directly on the clothes pin, the tag I made on top, and then sealed it with another layer of Mod Podge on top of that. Allow it to dry for about fifteen minutes.
While those were drying I cut out hearts and cut them in half.
I Mod Podged the heart on the side of the clothespin and sealed it with more Mod Podge on top.
Here are a couple AFTER photos.
I also made a collage!
The possibilities are endless with this little craft. You can make different sayings, similar to conversation hearts or make them more personalized. I thought these would also be cute with lips instead of a heart.
