Clothespin Goldfish Craft Supplies:

* Wooden Clothespins – one per goldfish craft
* Orange Paint Pen {we love these}
* Tiny Wiggle Eyes – two per goldfish craft
* School Glue
* Basic Craft Scissors
* Gold Glitter Cardstock
optional – glitter glue, rhinestones etc.

Directions:

* First paint your clothespin completely orange {or any color you like!} We personally love paint pens for this small task BUT you can get the real craft paint out and use small paint brushes.
* When done painting, set aside to let it dry completely.
* While those are drying, grab your cardstock and cut out some fish features – think fins/fish lips.
* To finish off the Clothespin Goldfish craft, have children “pinch” the fin cut out in between the clothespin and then glue their cardstock pieces & wiggle eye in place on the clothespin before playing and/or displaying proudly!!!
