DIY Clothes Pin Magnets

Searching the internet can inspire!
I took these two ideas and formed them together to make my own.



One thing I don't do is keep a record of where I find the pictures I collect in my photo gallery, so I can't say for sure where these ideas came from. I am pretty sure that the clothes pins come from etsy, and the other comes from there or one of the wedding blogs I frequented. I'll post later if I find them.


We were trying to come up with a great vintage wedding favor and finding those two photos did inspire this creation.





We glued pretty paper on new clothes pins (two different colors)- some had burlap glued to them instead of paper. We then added whatever we thought might make a look we liked, using mostly items we already had in our stuff. We glued a magnet on the back of each. No two (of the hundred we made) were exactly the same, though they were similar. Problem was, I liked every one of them.

They really looked cute pinned to the pig panel we had at the end of the reception "hall" or area.  The photo doesn't do it justice, cause it looked much better than this.
