I'm totally making this like today! I'm taking care of my 96- soon to be 97 year old mom, who lives on the beautiful South Branch Ausable River in Northern MI. There are dragon flies everywhere! They are so beautiful, colourful and graceful. I only hope I can do their true beauty justice! Thank you for the inspiration sweet lady! God Bless!
Just now seeing this.....excited
These Drago flies are awesome and I love that they can be made with basically any sized clothes pins.
You did a great job putting this dragon fly together. I'll watch your channel again. I love doing crafts to keep and to give a gifts. GREAT JOB!!!!
Beautiful, love it.Thank you for showing us how to make. Stay safe and have a wonderful day.
I made this this morning but ran out of pins had to go to my dollar tree to get more i followed along with you was so excited to make it gonna make more im so happy to get this project you are so easy to follow thanks
On the large clothes pins, you can find a pack of 100 at Walmart for like $1.78 but all Walmarts have different prices and use Tacky glue, its used for crafts and other stuff
Omg. Just saw this! I love dragonflies and thought this was amazing.love this!!
Cute idea .going to try this thank you ❤
Beautiful!!! The small one is very beautiful also.
Very pretty...i will be making some for inside & outside. TFS! 💕
Did this project with my 9 year old granddaughter. We love it!! Thank you for sharing it with us.
10 springs make a star

I think it would make a nice wind spinner like buy a window in your house if you painted it really pretty colors and string beads from it it's beautiful

Awesome creation! Thanks for the tutorial.
I have never seen a dragonfly made out of clothespins. I love dragonflies and I absolutely love this. You explained every thing so well and thank you so much for sharing this.

It's Amazing, Big, Bold and I love this dragonfly. Bigger is better 😎
I have just found your video and I'm so excited! My 8 year old son is doing a project on dragonflies and I really wanted to make him one but due to our extremely tight budget, I had to use what I had at home... we made it, he took it into school and got 1st prize. He was so proud of himself and I was pretty chuffed too!

That is so fantastic! I’m so happy to hear that your son won 1st and he is so proud of himself!!! Tell him I said, great job buddy and give him a high five ✋🏾 from me. Thank you so much for watching ♥️♥️♥️
‼️❤️AWESOME ❤️‼️
I watched the video all the way through and then went back to the beginning and made it as I watched you do it. Thank you so much for the inspiration because when I was making an order to Dollar Tree online for some of my craft supplies, somehow I accidentally ordered a case of clothes pins and they were delivered to me today. So I called them and told them they delivered the wrong thing and they said no that I had ordered those and I don't remember doing it so I had to have done it on accident cuz never in a million years would I have ordered a whole case of clothes pins because I live alone so I don't have very many clothes to wash just my own clothes and the linens and towels and things of course, never would I have ordered a case willingly. LoL. So I decided to go on KZread and find some clothes pin crafts and found this one and I thank you so very much for posting it. You are such a talented crafter/artist/teacher.
Beautiful! I collect dragonflies and now I'll need to make this! Thanks so much for the tutorial...you really made it easy to follow! 💕🙂
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I can’t find much on dragonflies and wreaths or dragonfly ribbon.

A new subbie. TFS. I love dragonflies, and butterflies so I'll have to create to my lil hearts content. Glad I found you making it!!! I have a clothespin bag full of clothespins that I have kept since 1992. GO FIGURE. . . 😂🤣 (🐝KIND)
Just made a small one can't wait to paint,thank you for making this video i love butterflies an dragon flies. Thanks to youtube I found you yesterday
Wow.... super simple to make and I love it. I followed your instructions which were extremely clear (including the video) and whipped one up in no time at all. Now I just have to figure out how to make one that will withstand the Summer weather.
Very nice video. I can’t wait to make mine I have all three size clothespins so I think I will try one of each size. Keep up the great work. I would like to see more ideas in animals (maybe a butterfly, frog) if you could in clothespins.
Honestly, this is day 2 and I am in awe of you! We L🥰VE dragonflies in our family. I’m going to make a bunch. Thank you soooo so so much!!!

I loved the middle colour. It was the navy and black I wasn’t fond of. But I love the design. Thank you for a great idea. 💝🥰🤗
I'm not much on clothes pin art but this one is super cool. Just this month our state conservation department ( Missouri) has highlighted the dragon fly and damsel fly in their monthly publication. It has wonderful pictures for me to use as inspiration for colors. Thank you for your video.
Beautiful just beautiful.
I was able to get the medium clothespins at the Dollar Tree just the other day. This is really cute!

Thank you, that was great!
I didn’t know Dollar Tree had the small clothes pins, I ordered mine from Amazon!! Ugh!! Anyway, I loved the dragon fly. I love them. Going to make them. Thank you for showing us. Very much appreciated. Have a great weekend.
I just watched your video earlier this month and have made one...I love it! I'm planning a 2nd gift wondered if you have any recommendations for mounting/hanging? Expect ing my mom will want it outside on the house or deck. I've sealed it really well, but still am concerned about it breaking.
You go girl love it
