Set of 6 decorated clothes pins.
They are decorated on both sides with quality paper then sanded and mod podged.

If you're like me you have regular clothes pins or those store bought plastic ones on your chip and cereal bags. These would look much cuter!
Use them to hang cards or banners.
Hang pictures.
Keep papers together.

They would be a great stocking stuffer or teachers gift.

Clips measure approx. 3 inches long and ¼ inch in width.
