Clothespin Photo Stand

I think my motto has become "I should have taken a picture of that!"

I made a ton of these for some friends and didn't take a single picture, but here is the one that I have sitting in my office, so please keep in mind that there are so many cute things you can do with these, and this is only one idea.

For the record, I got this idea from a friend, and now I see them everywhere.
I found the wood clothespins online through a company that sells them for $0.84 if you buy them 10 at a time.  The shipping is also about $10, but if you buy 30 the shipping is only $12, so buy them in bulk to get the best price (which is still a lot cheaper than the craft and fabric stores).
Mod Podge the clothespin, let it dry, then mod podge the paper, and let that dry.  Then add whatever embellishments you would like and I used mod podge to add those as well!

You can use it as a gift card holder, or make them for baby shower gifts, or if you are giving someone a "Thank You" card, etc. put the card in the clothespin!  A very fun way to add a little touch of flair!
