You can use the construction paper to cut out small party hats, snowmen, or Santa Clauses for a Christmas theme. If you want, just paint the clothespins bright colors with fun colorful paints or glitter paint.

Tie or tape the twine/string across a fireplace mantle or a door. Attach the string to the fireplace mantle or door with fine nails, tape, or Micro Utility Hooks
