  • 1 Wooden clothes peg
    10 inches Metal wire
    Permanent black marker
    Paint in various colors
    Varnish
    Hot glue gun

These make great little fridge magnets, add them to decorative wreaths or simple peg them around the house.

1. Paint the clothes peg with colors of your choice.

2. Draw a small face with the marker, at the top of the clothespin. The front of the dragonfly must not show the slit of the clothespin.

3. Varnish is optional.

4. Work the wire with your hands until you get two pairs of wings, a large one and a smaller one underneath.

5. Hot glue the center of your wings and just insert the glued area at the top of the slit.

This is a children's craft.

I don't think it's to nice. Good for small children

well , here all good craft stuffs, but, I think it would better if we can atleast copy the picture or take a printout of the finished craft as other craft websites. therwise it is difficult to make the craft Everytime to see the computer ,it's not easy.
