    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

    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!

    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.
