Making a rolling pin holder

Hello! I'm still alive -- I'm just mostly on Instagram. (I also changed jobs and have been really busy with that.)

I hope everyone had a wonderful summer!

I thought of a way to make a rolling pin holder for my bakery and wanted to share that with you.

I was looking on Pinterest for ideas on how to store the rolling pins (as I was getting quite a collection for my bakery)--as one does. And I saw this in real life, so then I was thinking of how to make it in miniature.


I used craft sticks, omniglue and paperclips (and paint).



I cut the paper clips so I had the curve part and a little more and then I glued those onto cut craft sticks. Before I glued it, I tested my rolling pin to make sure it would fit and marked the places. 


For one of them, I glued another piece of craft stick on it, but with the other, the rolling pin wouldn't have fit. You can paint it if you want.  I painted one of them. 

And that's it!

Enjoy! And I hope you have a great week!
