Quick & Insanely Easy DIY

Hey everyone!

I thought this would be a fun little idea to share with you all.  As you know, I love picture taking.  My cork board at work is full of photos:


Some photos I'm ok poking a tack through, but others (like my Polaroids) not so much.  Maybe you're the same way with photos as well?  Old photos especially.  Well, I have a solution!

Hang them like a clothes-line banner!


So, let's get to it.  I did this using supplies I found around my work place.  Of course you're welcome to make your own adjustments :)  

PS...This isn't really anything earth-shattering, but a fun way to sprucen up your work space.

See? Easy peasy!  I plan on doing this around my apartment too, and getting ahold of some clothes line pins.  My Polaroid film I bought off eBay should be coming in soon, so there'll be even more memories to string up.

Happy Thursday everyone!  Today is technically my Friday because of my work schedule, mwahaha...

Much love,

~E

PS...there's one more day left to enter my dress give away at The Littlest Polly!  Go take a peek.  I'm madly in love with this dress and I hope it'll find an awesome new home :)

I only knew about the alphabet thing because my mom pointed it out to me! That's why they have you do that, so they can see how every letter will look :)

My mom's a pretty smart cookie!

Really loving this! I saw something kind of similar at IKEA that was just outrageously priced. I like this idea quite a bit more and intend to do it soon! :]

Erin Dawn said...

Sarah...got it! :D

Ashley...I hate when stores mark up things that are so simple to do/make. I guess it's a pet peeve of mine...

Awesome tutorial! I think I'll do that on my cork board too :D Recently I used an old frame I painted, and strung wire from top to bottom to hang pictures and art on.

This will be great for my cork board! <3
