{CuTe} Cupboard Door Picture Hangers!!

Here is a FuN idea to hang your kiddos pictures up...or any picture you might have. Hanging your pictures on a clip like this would make it quick and easy to switch them out whenever you want! Here's how I made them...



Here are the supplies that I used to do this project...




First...sand & paint your cupboard door. {mine was already white} Then...I wiped stain (Minwax dark walnut) with a rag on all the edges...



Then...drill your holes for the ribbon...



Add your ribbon and tie in a bow...



Then...using E-6000 glue...glue your magnetic clip to were you want it. I used a 8x10 picture...so I glued my clip wherever the picture looked centered. {Tip: If the bottoms of your picture start to curl up...I used a little tape to hold mine down...or you could also use photo corners}



Then...for hanging...I just use the ribbon that is showing in the back...to hang on a nail!




So CuTe...and So SiMpLe!!



HaPpY CraFtiNg!!
