We ran our "American Clothespin Quest" for 4 years before someone finally agreed to manufacture clothespins in the USA. Please help us thank and congratulate the Kevin and Hilary Jones family for their commitment and entrepreneurship.
Kevin's wooden clothespins are:
- Made of locally harvested Maple
- Stainless springs never rust
- Large & Strong. 3.5" long
- Grip up to 1/2" rods and all clotheslines
- Weather resistant finish
- Support a US family business
- Lifetime Guarantee
And the best way we can all thank them is by buying some of their sturdy clothespins. I know that they are more expensive than the Chinese clothespins you find in a store. Please do not think of it as just buying great clothespins, also think of it as supporting a new business. They are bootstrapping their efforts with their own savings for now, but every clothespin you buy helps them get better equipment so they can make the clothespins more efficiently, in larger quantities, and eventually at a lower price.

Customer Reviews of our Wooden Clothespins
These clothes pins are the finest I have ever received, super strong and durable.
These handcrafted clothespins will outlive me. They are of SUPERB quality. These aren't cheap pins that won't hold clothes and/or breaks if you look at it. They truly are great examples of American craftsmanship at its finest. And THRY ARE GUARANTEED! Expensive? Yes, but worth every dollar because they aren't going to break! 10 stars and the moon too!
I have bought items over the years. I have always had great service. Glad to find great clothes pins. Made in America is great!
My son ordered a set of clothespins for me last year for Christmas. This may sound silly, but they turned out to be one of the best presents I have ever received! I am not kidding. We live off-grid and do not have a dryer, so all of our laundry is hung up on a line. I have been so frustrated with cheap, flimsy clothespins that break apart when hanging jeans and heavy towels. These clothespins are so incredibly sturdy. I have used them for over a year and have never had one break. Not one. We also live in a windy location and have never had a piece of laundry torn off the line. These clothespins are worth every penny. This Christmas, my son asked if I had any wishes on my list and I emphatically told him, "Yes! More clothespins!!" It feels great to buy an American-made product that is so high-quality. Thanks for being a great company!
This is my third purchase of your clothespins! These are fabulous!! I live in Florida and these last for years in our unrelenting sun. I had sheets stay on the line in 50 mph winds! I have photos if you want proof!!
I ordered the clothes pins, and they are absolutely perfect! They're beautifully crafted and strongly grip jeans, sheets, rugs, anything, and on the first try. If you've been annoyed with cheaper clothes pins where the item slips loose, or the pin needs to be jammed on, and then the spring gets tangled up in the clothesline, look no further. These are your dream clothes pins. I've hung duvet covers, throw rugs, bib overalls, and have had strong winds. They stayed on through it all. Finally, no more petty annoyances with the cheap ones. Make the investment and enjoy hanging out your clothes. These will last for years. Thank you for the best clothes pins ever!

Product Spec's
Clothespin Specifications:
- Wood = Maple
- Wood Size = 3-1/2" x 1/2" wide
- Finish = Linseed Oil
- Spring = Stainless Steel
- Grip Range = 0 to 1/2"
Will the Linseed Oil get on my clothing?
No. They have done tests using wet, white fabrics and letting them dry over night. The linseed oil is completely absorbed into the wood and does not come out or discolor fabrics. A separate company has done this identical test with the same results.

We call that the "Best Drying Rack Difference"
Interview with the family that makes these clothespins...
How do you make these clothespins?
They are currently made using common woodworking tools and good old-fashioned elbow grease. After the two maple wood pieces are created we put them in a
tumbler to smooth the edges. They are then dipped into linseed oil and dried for 48 hours. Each clothespin side is checked for possible
flaws and then assembled with a spring.
Where do you get the wood and the spring?
Our current wood supplier is in the Pacific Northwest, they are about an hour drive away. They are a small, family operation that we have
really enjoyed working with. The trees are mostly from private families in the area. The wood supplier takes pride in assuring that every part
of the tree goes to craftsman in the US to be manufactured into useful products. The stainless steel spring is manufactured through a
spring company in the US. We can say with certainty that our clothespins are 100% made in America by Americans.
What is your business goal?
Our first goal is to grow the business to a level that fully supports our family. We would love to grow
Kevin's Quality Clothespins to the point of supporting 4 or 5 additional employees and their families.
Your clothespins are higher priced than imported ones. Why should I buy Kevin's Clothespins?
Buying products that are manufactured in the US is important to the future of our country. When you purchase items made in our country that
money supports not only the person who is producing the product, but all those who have a hand in making them. For example, when you purchase
our pins you are supporting 4 tiers of people. From Best Drying Rack down to the person who cuts trees for our wood supplier. That money is
invested in our own economy. You are investing in not only in clothespins, but in several American based businesses.
