Get inspired with this fun and easy wood clothespin leaf fairy craft! Perfect for kid’s aged 5-10, this creative fall craft is a great way to keep them busy during the holidays or any other time of year.
Craft Supplies:
- Wooden Clothespins – 1 per craft
- Plastic Leaves
- School Glue
- Paint Pens
- Embellishments
Directions:
- First have children grab the paint pens and draw on a face, hair and dress portion on the clothespin. I also painted on some ballerina slippers towards the bottom to complete my fairy look.
- At this point, children can also add even more embellishments {like small stickers, glitter, rhinestones} that they see fit to really make it their own.
- Remember – you can also add some long yarn or cardstock hair to the back as well!
- To finish off the Clothespin Leaf Fairies – glue on a plastic decor leaf to the back of the clothespin to give the look of wings.
- Once finished, let it dry completely and display proudly!
