Pipecleaner Crafts
All you need are pipecleaners and a needlenose pliers. The color pipecleaners work best, but all I had was white.
to make a shamrock: 2 pipecleaners, whatever size you have, the longer the pipecleaner the bigger they came or smaller if you use smaller pieces. Twist the 2 pipecleaners together to make an X. Now, using your needlenose pliers, start at one of 3 tips and roll the pipecleaner around you pliers till you get to the center. Remove the pliers and do this to the remainder 2 tips . The 4th end you trim down to be your stem. Shape and I added a bow on the stem. You can also put some glitter on the petals.. If you want a 4 leaf clover, just add another piece of pipecleaner to the middle of the X.
Now, being that I used white, I took the part that I trimed off for the stem and folded it in half. using the pliers I twisted and shaped like a heart. I added a red bow and put a magnet on the back. You can also make pins out of these. They really are cute.
