Table Top Wishing Well
You need:

  • 17 Clothespins
  • Tacky Glue
  • Baby Food Jar
  • Low Temp Glue Gun
  • Four Small Heart Woodsies
  • Eight Small Teardrop Woodsies
  • Rubber Band
  • Pink and Green Paint or Paint Markers
  • Silk or Dried Flowers

Instructions:

Remove the springs from 17 clothespins. Hot glue half a clothespin (point side down and right side out) to the lip of the baby food jar extending up. Glue another directly across the jar. These will become the support for the roof of the wishing well.

 

Cover the outside of the baby food jar with tacky glue. Cover with clothespin halves (point sides up and right sides out). Line up the bottoms with the bottom of the jar. Use a rubber band to hold them in place until dry.

 

Use a glue gun to glue five clothespin halves together side-by-side to make one part of the roof. Glue five more to together to make the other side. Use hot glue to glue the pieces of the roof together and to attach to the wishing well as shown in the photo above.

 

Paint four woodsies hearts pink and eight woodsies teardrops green. Glue to the wishing well to decorate. Add some silk flowers.
