Gather all supplies. Remove the metal spring from the wooden clothespins. Line up five clothespins in a V shape on your work surface, to create a star shape. Attach the wooden clothespin pieces together with a glue gun and glue sticks, using the photo as a template.
Paint the front and all sides of the clothespin star with light yellow acrylic craft paint. Set aside to dry.
Place star onto light yellow craft felt and trace the outline with a marker. Carefully cut out star from felt, cutting inside the traced lines for a clean, finished project. Trace each star separately because the shapes will vary slightly. Glue felt to the back of the star ornament.
Attach a variety of gold tinsel pom poms into the center of each star with a glue gun and glue sticks.
To finish the Clothespin Christmas Star craft, cut a 24” length of natural jute twine, tie it in a 6” loop with a knot, and finish with a bow. Attach the loop and bow to the top of the back of the clothespin star ornament with a glue gun and glue sticks.
