My oldest granddaughter Kirstie is always bringing her papers home from Kindergarten to mommy for her to see what she has done. She always just sticks them on the fridge with a magnet so I thought I would use one of the large clothespins I had so she could decorate her work a little more fancier. I used the Basic Grey paper Boxer (My favorite) and glued it to the clothespin, I sanded the edges and used some walnut distressed ink around the edges. I colored Tilda with my copics and then used some diamond glaze over all of her I then mounted her on the clothespin with pop dots. I then adhered an prima flower with brad and spacers to the middle and punched out some leaves and glued that to the clothespin. I then computer generated a saying to hang off of the tiny clothespin I had glued on. So I hope Kirstie will like her school projects held with this.
Here is a close up of the clothespin
