Table Top Wishing Well Make a pretty little wishing well as a gift
for mom or just to bring in the spring! Thanks go to Sarah or West Palm Beach for this
idea.
Remove the springs from 17
clothespins. Hot glue half a clothespin (point side down and right side out) to the
outside 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.
You can make really cool
bracelets out of the leftover springs.
