How to Make DIY Aged Clothespins
Perfectly aged clothespins in minutes...
I've posted about this before but here is just a reminder.
Fill a container with white vinegar and a steel wool pad and let it sit overnight. It must be a steel wool pad that rusts. The ones from the hardware store do not rust.
Drop the clothespins into the solution making sure to coat each one thoroughly.
Remove the clothespins after just a few minutes and lay them out on a rag to dry them.
When they are dry you will have beautifully aged clothespins!
Enjoy!

But these were from the dollar store, $1.00 each. How good could they be? How well could they hold up?
I bought 4 mugs, if they worked out, I'd be back for the rest of the set. Well, they worked out great!
A few months later, the mugs didn't chip, didn't crack, and didn't break.
They were awesome! So…
