🧺 DIY: Clothespin Basket from a Tuna Can

A craft that’s been going viral online shows someone gluing wooden clothespins around an empty tuna can to create a small decorative basket or organizer. It’s simple, inexpensive, and surprisingly useful. ✨

🧰 What You Need

• 1 clean empty tuna can

• About 40 wooden clothespins

• Strong craft glue or hot glue

• Optional: paint, ribbon, or twine for decoration

🪚 Steps

1. Clean the can
   Wash and dry the tuna can thoroughly.

2. Prepare the clothespins
   Remove the metal springs so each clothespin becomes two flat wooden pieces.

3. Glue the pieces around the can
   Apply glue to the back of each wooden piece and attach it vertically around the outside of the can until it is fully covered.

4. Let it dry
   Allow the glue to dry completely so everything holds firmly.

5. Decorate (optional)
   Paint the wood, wrap ribbon around the top, or add twine for a rustic look.
