Clothespin Photo Block

I love my kids. I love taking pictures.
So you can imagine that I take lots of pictures, mostly of my kids!

I enjoy new, fun ways to display pictures in our home. 

So I made up this little photo block........




I didn't make up a tutorial since it's pretty self-explanatory. 
I painted some scrap wood. I cut a piece of scrapbook paper to fit & inked around the edges.
Then I adhered it to the block, then used my glue gun to add on the mini clothespins.




The clothespins allow for me to change the photo out as often as I like. 

I can display one larger photo.......




Or I can display a couple smaller pictures together.......




I am all about the simple projects lately!!
