Step One: Gather Your Supplies :)
You will need:Wood (Pallet or regular- just stain and WaLa!!!)
Clothes Pins
Gorilla Glue
Black Sharpie
I used 1x4 wood for mine. I got it from Lowes and stained it. You can make yours as Big or as Small as you like. But mine is 5 boards tall and Measures 23 inches Wide and 17 inches Tall.
Ok so First you want to get your wood to size. Measure it out however big you want to go- Below is the back of mine.
Now you need to secure it together. I didn't take a picture of the back of this one but below is a Picture of another wood sign I have made. It only has 4 boards but it's just to give you an idea of how to secure it:
Ok So now assuming you have your wood cut, Put together and Stained (If needed to)... Lets move on to the next step. Before Gluing your Clothes Pins on put the on the board with a Picture in them (I used 4x6 Photos) and line them when you like. Mark them with a Pencil once you figure out what you think looks best.
After I marked where I wanted my Photos to hang I Took my sharpie and Free handed {family} at the top. Then I glued those bad boys on!!! Keep in Mind when you use Gorilla Glue it will Expand... So only use a little. As tempting as it is Now you have to let your Creation Dry :o
Without the Pictures it doesn't look like much But once you get your photos on there Breathtaking!!!
Once the Glue is Dried Add your Photos! And Remember this be creative... You can change up the wording... The Colors if the words and even clothes pins!!!
See Simple yet Amazing!!!
