Make low tech jewelry with a high tech look. You won't need any tools or special supplies.

Instructions:

Bend back the clothespins to remove the springs trying not to bend the springs. Open the spring enough to slide a pony bead on each leg and slide each leg into one side of the spring part of a second spring. Continue adding pony beads and springs until the bracelet is big enough to fit around your wrist. Fit the final spring in place on your wrist so you won't need a clasp.

Make a table top wishing well from your leftover wooden pieces.

Tiny springs from tiny clothespins make great rings or daintier bracelets. It's a little more difficult to get the beads on because you'll need a small bead with a big enough hole to fit around the bend in the leg of the spring.
