Here at camp, we leave messages for each other by pinning them onto strings we tie around the foot of our bed. We make a set of special clothespins so everyone knows who sent the message – it’s a ton of fun! Here’s how to make your own personalized set of clothespins:
What you need: 5-8 clothespins (however many you want to make), acrylic paint, jewels, glitter, rhinestones, stickers – anything that is distinctively YOU!
What you do:
1. Draw out a design on a piece of paper ahead of time; decide what design and colors you’d like to use. You might choose to create a specific design and then use different colors to create it on each of your clothespins, or you might make all of your pins look EXACTLY the same. Totally up to you!
2. Create your clothespins!
Let your design dry. When it’s dry, write a message and pin it somewhere for a friend or family member to find.
You can also glue magnets to the back of them and use them on the fridge or in your locker or on anyting metal. (Except your compputer tower of course) Would love the recipe for watermelon shirt the winged shoes or the green jacket or green swimsuit. -Coopdevil77
I LOVE WEBKINZ, but how do you send stuff to ‘crafty critterz’ ?
These are very cute! -Dawndrop*
Those are soooo cute!!!! I really want to make those!!! I want to see the nice neon swimsuit, too!! :) I have the black cat, too!!!
SO DO I!!!!
Anyone want some clothing Recipes?!! Just ask me! I have 21 clothing recipes!
Huh, I wish you knew the Watermelon Top thing. I used to follow the forum for that but then I stopped after awhile. But, um, do you know the Sea Side Sarong recipe? -Moonstar§
I have a Seaside Sarong, I received it from a friend. I personally think it isn’t that impressive. I want to see the artist’s smock.
Oops! Forgot my signature! I also would like to see the Nice Neon Swimsuit. It will look great on my Black Cat!

Nice! You could also use colored Sharpies. Markers work too! Have fun crafting!

Cool. I remember one time I took a clothespin and glued four colored cotton balls on it. Then I added two googly (is that how you spell it?) eyes to the front ball and two small pieces of pipecleaners to the top of the ball to make a caterpillar pin. It was pretty cool. :)
Wow! You should send in that idea to Crafty Critterz! :D ~lynxlover
I agree, Mudstar, you should so send it in! I think I might send one of my ideas in too! -Moonstar§
They look really pretty! Cute Closepins!! Luv From LillyLuvie* :mrgreen: *******Bye!! Be!!
Neat.
Huh, I completely forgot that you can send things in to Crafty Critterz. I think I might do that, Thanks guys! =)
I made a butterfly from a pin in school when I was in fourth grade for my mom on mother’s day. My mom still has it. It came out very good. -Mall Girl ^.^
You could do the same thing on a mini clothespin to make a barette for your Webkinz’s ear
-Always :-)
Aww. That would be cute, Always! I would do that if I had a mini clothespin and if I didn’t have a White Terrior which comes with a bow in her hair.
Does anyone think I should change my name from Hi to something different and more flashy?
Once I made a crocodile clothespin with a magnet on the back.
