Preparation

Step 1

For each bag, decorate one side of a clothespin with either paint, puffy paint or glitter glue. Glue two small googly eyes near the gripping end of the clothespin and let the glue dry.

Put your snack into a snack-size ziplock bag until it's a little over half full. I liked this idea that I saw on Pinterest, filling the bag half with goldfish and half with grapes. Seal the bag, cinch the middle with your fingers, and clip it with the clothespin.

Next, fold down/curl the tips of a 6-inch length of pipe cleaner, then bend the entire piece in half. Clip the pipe cleaner in the clothespin.
