Picture Frame Mirror

This project is a great 2 in 1. It's a useful size mirror with clothes pins to hold pictures and notes around it. I made this for my boyfriends sister's birthday and she absolutely loved it.

Supplies needed:
A wooden circle, a slightly smaller circle mirror, a hot glue gun, clothes pins, white paint, and paint for the pins (however many colors you choose).

Step 1:
Paint the wooden circle completely white.

Step 2:
Glue the mirror to the center of the wooden circle.

Step 3:
Then paint each clothes pin whatever color(s) you decide.

HINT:
Don't worry about painting the inside of the clothes pins, unless you want to spend years on this project.

Step 4:
Measure around the wooden circle to mark where each clothes pin will be glued. There should be an inch between each one.

Step 5:
After the clothes pins are dry, glue them around the edges of the wooden circle.

HINT:
Glue just the front side of the clothes pin down to the wood. If you try to glue both sides, you won't be able to open them to put pictures in.

Place your pictures around the mirror and hang it up!
