If you’d like to add color, paint the tops of your clothespins using pastel acrylics. Let them dry completely before moving to the next step.
Cut narrow strips of music sheet to match the width and length of each clothespin. Keep the musical notes centered for the best visual effect.
Apply a thin coat of Mod Podge on the flat surface of the clothespin, then press the music strip gently into place. Then smooth out air bubbles using your fingertip or a small brush handle.
Once the paper adheres well, brush another light layer of Mod Podge on top to seal it. Let it dry fully to achieve a glossy, protected finish.
If desired, lightly sand the edges for a clean look. You can also tie them in small sets with twine for gifting.
