One of my favorite DIY tutorials on Sharifa Creates is for the photo clip string set. I enjoyed making this project because it was one of my first blog posts.
I love the photo string tutorial so much that I decided to make my very first YouTube video on it. Yes, a YouTube tutorial! Some people learn well with written instructions while others need a visual or mixture of both. For this reason I decided to expand Sharifa Creates to video.

How To Make A Photo Clip String Set
Supplies
- Clothespins
- Craft glue
- Glue
- Glitter (optional)
- Photos and clippings
- Twine
- Paintbrushes
- Push pins
- Scissors
Instructions
Step One: Paint
Paint the clothespins and let them dry. Sprinkle glitter on a sheet of newspaper. Paint a layer of glue on the clothespins and dab them in the glitter. Press the glitter down and allow the glue to dry completely. Adding glitter is optional.
Step Two: Clip and hook
Cut 54 inches of twine and tie loops on each end. Push the pins into the wall at a distance that will allow the twine to hang. Hook the twine onto the push pins. Clip your photos and other items to the twine using the clothespins.
