Valentine Photo Clip

A fun way to display your favorite photo or Valentine on Valentine's Day! The oversize clothes pin in the middle is what holds the photo.


Who did you make it for?

I gave these away to family along with our kids photos in it!


What materials did you use?

- large wooden clothespin (Found in any crafts store)
- white paint
- glitter
- heart picks (the decorations that look like heart lollipops)
- Valentine Tag
- gingham ribbon
- felt hearts
- hot glue gun


How did you make it?

First, you need to paint the wooden clothespin white and while wet, sprinkle on some ultra fine white glitter. Then using a hot glue gun adhere some pieces of a Valentines pick onto the front of the clip. Then adhere a tag over the bottom stems of the picks and then a red gingham bow over the top of the tag. Add some felt hearts in the center of the bow.
