*Note* I ordered the clothespins off Amazon. They came clipped to little cardboard strips. I left them on the strips to paint one side. When that side was dry, I was easily able to flip over and paint the other side.
For best results, do two coats, and be careful to get on the insides of the clothes pins as well so the natural wood doesn’t peek through.
