Patriotic Clothes Pin Wreath

I originally seen this idea in the June's issue of All You. I seriously LOVE that magazine. I put my own little twist on it. Mine does not look as wonderful as the one in the magazine but I made it so I love it.



Supplies:

  • 1 wire clothes hanger
  • 85 clothes pins
  • red, white, and blue paint
  • cut out stars (I painted mine silver)
1. Paint 35 clothes pins red
2. Paint 30 clothes pins white
3. Paint 20 clothes pins blue
4. Bend wire hanger into a circle (mine wasn't as perfect as I would have liked)
5. Snap pins onto hanger. Start on the left side with the 20 blue pins. After the blue pins, do 5 red then 5 white. Do that until circle is filled.
I used a little glue inside each pin before I clipped to give it a little sturdiness. 
6. Add stars to the top or where you want them.
