1 Large Red Pompom

2 Small Red Pompoms

2 Red Pipe Cleaners

Tacky Glue or Low Temp Glue Gun

Instructions

Paint the clothespin red. Let dry. Cut a 2" piece of pipe cleaner. Bend into a "U" shape. Glue to the top near the end of the clothespin. Glue a small pompom on top for the ant head. Cut a 5" piece from the same pipe cleaner. Shape into a large "U" shape. Glue near the pompom for the first set of legs. Glue on the second small pompom. Cut the second pipe cleaner in half. Twist together in the middle. Seperate and bend to make four distinct legs. Glue legs on the clothespin. Finish by gluing on the large pompom.
