Wedding Layout with Mini Clothespins

Hi, it’s Renee Zwirek here today to share with you how I used Mini Clothespins on this wedding layout I created with the lovely Home+Made collection.

MiniClothesPins-03

I started with these fabulous Large Gold Alphas.  I made sure I added some adhesive foam dots to them first so that they wouldn’t stick to my working surface.  Then, I used a sewing needle to poke tiny holes along the tops of each letter. Using the same sewing needle, I threaded the black and white baker’s twine through the letters and made sure I spaced them out the way I wanted for my layout.

I added some extra adhesive foam dots where I thought I would need them to make sure the gold of the letters would look nice and smooth.

I placed my title where I wanted it and added the mini clothespins to the twine.  I finished off my mini clothespins by tying some bows to them.

Here’s the finished layout.  I love this family photo (taken by Casey Broadwater) at my brother-in-law’s wedding!  I made the photo 5 x 7 for two reasons.  One, it was the perfect size to go with those pretty gold letters of my title (of course, it’s all about the scrapbooking first. Ha!).  And, two, I really wanted the photo to be the focal point for my layout.  I really love the way this pattern paper draws your eye to the photo and title.
