Handy Alligator Clip

What You’ll Need:

• paint
• spring-type wooden clothespin
• scissors
• thin cardboard
• glue
• wiggle eyes
• magnet, if desired

How to Make It:

1. Paint a spring-type wooden clothespin green. Paint the “teeth” part of the clip part white.

2. Cut three small, connected triangles from thin cardboard. Paint them green, and let them dry. Glue them on the alligator’s back.

3. Glue on wiggle eyes.

4. Use your alligator as a paper clip or as a snack-bag clip. Or, you could glue a magnet on the bottom and hang the alligator clip on the refrigerator to hold messages.
