Make A Lantern Out of Clothespins

Clothespin lanternsMake a lantern from clothespins
As part of this month's power tool challenge I needed to create a lantern out of wood.



Now I have seen a lot of the same square wooden box lanterns and I wanted to try something new.  So I decided my wood was going to come in the form of.. CLOTHESPINS!

And instead of square.. I would go with a ROUND lantern shape.

The light itself is nothing more than a string of fairy lights wrapped around a cylinder.. but it gives a great glow though the fun shapes of the clothespins.

This project is super easy, since the only power tool you'd use is a jig saw (and maybe a sander.)

The entire thing is actually assembled with hot glue!  Easy right?
