School Photo Display

We recently got our school photos returned. This School Photo Display was created from items on hand. I joined the January Craft Room Destash Challenge. The rules were to use craft items you had hoarded and spend less than $10 if necessary. No problem, right? I think I am like most crafters and I hoard EVERYTHING related to crafting. I didn't need to buy a thing.

I created the above School Photo Display from items I got at a past SNAP conference. 

materials

Materials:

  • Elmer's Paint Pen (Gold)
  • Large Clothespin (Heidi Swapp)
  • Gold Glitter Words (Heidi Swapp)

Directions:

Unwrap all items. Start with the large clip.

remove clip
Disassemble the clip.

 

paint clip
Using the gold paint pen, paint the spring part of the clip.

 

place sticker
While the clip is apart, place the chosen stickers on the wood.

 

replace clip
Once the paint is dry, put the clip back together.

 

vertical
I originally designed this project to stand on end as pictured above. And it works that way. While taking pictures, I was having trouble getting it all in frame and started fumbling around with it.

 

horizontal
I ended up with the clip on its side and actually like it displayed this way much better. Here's to happy accidents!
