DIY! Pretty Pegs!

Today I was in the mood to do some DIYing, so I came across this sweet little tutorial to make decorative clothespins! Yes, I said it, clothespins! This tutorial is straight off Creature Comforts (http://www.creaturecomfortsblog.com)

What you will need:

1. Standard Wooden clothes pegs-Generally found in the laundry section of stores
2. Fabric Scraps in solid colors or prints- lightweight cottons will work best 
3. Double Sided Tape
4. Scissors

Steps:

1. Pull out a strip of double-sided tape that is as long or slightly longer than your clothespin.  Attach it to the surface of the clothespin making sure to keep it free from bubbles or creases.  The tape should be lined up evenly along one long edge so that the excess hangs off the other sides (seen in the photo above).  Trim off excess using your scissors - this works best when the tape-free side is facing towards you while you cut.
2. Place your prepared clothespin tape-side down onto the back side of your fabric (make sure the right side of the fabric is facing down for this step so that it will be displayed correctly when you are done).  Turn over and use your finger to press and smooth the fabric onto the tape.  Cut excess fabric off all sides - this works best when the fabric-covered side is away from you while you cut.
3. You're done!

Hope you enjoyed it! Tell me if you have a go!
