Well let it bother you no more. I happened to see an idea on Pinterest that led me to a clothespin spring star ornament tutorial.
They don't have a hanger on them yet but these are my stars. I found that some of them move around more than others and will lose their shape easily. I dabbed a little glue where the springs connect to help them hold their shape.

Thanks for sharing this! You know I love stars! The suspense was killing me, so thanks for telling us!
Yes, I was wondering! Wow, these stars are GREAT :)
Once again....another clever idea!! Once the glue dries....dip them in a glue mixture and white 'snow'!!!
they are really cool and i love anything that upcycles.. just put a ornament hanger on and perfect for a tree. they could even be spray painted for different colors. i like these.
Definitely waste not want not. I really like these!
Would be cute on a Christmas tree!

No, it never actually occurred to me - but what a clever idea.
I love those! Just think of all the colors you can paint them for different holidays like gold and silver and red, white and blue!
Look at you using every part of the clothespin! You is smart. And creative!
No, I wasn't wondering about those pieces at all. I'm not crafty that's why.
Have a fabulous day. Big hug to you and tons of scritches to Gibbs. ♥♥♥
Tell Wade to get out his soldering iron to make them stay together ... and while he's at it he could add a pin back. Cute craft fair item!
these are so cool! I can think of so many ways to use them! putting them on a string of lights to hang around a porch or deck would be fun and painting them fun sparkly colors, decorating a wreath and just so many possibilities! :)
Thank you so very much! I really have been in a tissy over what you did with those springs.
I'll admit that it has been keeping me awake at nights so nice to know. And indeed, a brilliant idea!
