Clothespin People of Pinole by Elora

Had fun crafting with ten year old grandaughter on Thanksgiving vacation.  Here are a few of the characters that happened to be clothespins.  There's Surfer Dude,   Lady Gaga, Unknown Female (possibly Valley Girl), Bikini Girl (too much chlorine in her hair!  Aaaaaaaaah! ) Elora Herself, Rasta Man and Tidy Whitey.  Then we decorated and added bling to plastic hairbands from the Dollar Store.  This is Art for the Grandma Soul!
