A Photograph Holder for Fathers Day

Did you all have a good day today? I did. It's the time of year when there are lots of motorcycle shows to choose from and what better than to go to a show that is being held in one of my favourite seaside towns, Wells next to the Sea, the Bike Show is aptly called Wheels next the Sea. We were lucky with the weather and it stayed dry and sunny and a great day was had by all.

Now back to crafting and Handmade Monday at Handmade Harbour, do pop over, it's a great linky party to join in with.

It is always great to be asked to make something special and a couple of weeks ago I was asked if it was possible to alter my Art Hanger to take 3 pegs for showing off photographs of their three boys.

I'm pleased with the result, I think it turned out well balanced and was the ideal gift for Fathers Day.

So in addition to the single peg for holding notes or photographs.......

and the 2 peg Art Holders for showing off your childs Artwork........

I can now offer Photograph Holders with more pegs. I've had a little experiment and I can possibly do up to six pegs but with a different type of hanger than the ribbon that I usually use. I'm still playing about with this so watch this space.

Have a great week everyone and take care

    I love the note holders - they are such a good idea. The daddy's boys plaques is great, such a nice way to display photographs. Hope you have a good week.

    Fabulous, what a great idea! Although I would need hundreds of them to display all the stuff that Daisy has - I think a purge might be in order (but when she's not looking!)!

    This is a genius idea. I love the children's masterpiece sign, I'm going to adapt this idea for my classroom and get the children to make their own. Thank you!
