Wooden clothes pins

You can purchase the base pieces that the clothes pins fit into but they are not necessary. They do make it easier for the finished fairies to stand up on their own.

Instructions for clothes pin fairies

Cut the stem off of one of the fake flowers. Remove the green plastic piece at the base of the flower holding the petals together.
