Wait for the black to dry completely, then you can go in with your favorite pops of color! I chose to do some simple hearts here. I love how the colors pop against the dark background!

Next, we’re going to take some small clothespin clips and paint those to match

Once they dry, take a little wood glue and use the other half of the wooden backing to create a place for your photo display.
