This is one of those things you can whip up fast but it looks like it took much longer. I used a tuna can and clipped dyed clothespins around the edge. No gluing needed, though you may want to glue some decor on the front like I did. These can be used to hold anything. I stuck a candle in mine.

These clothespins are some I dyed with food coloring which gives them a stained look.
A very beautiful clothespin craft decor item!

I like the idea but I would take the pins apart and use only one half. That way I could do twice as many with the exact same result.
Great idea

How did you do this with food colouring or what colours did you use to make this colour? I absolutely love yours! I tried it and it looks to same as if I were to paint it♀️
Love the dyed colour look!
After you color them do you have to seal the paint?
