While out blog hopping :) I saw this adorable clothes pin heart 
I started out by spacing out and clipping clothes
(BUT I can't remember the blog I saw it on to link back,
so if any of you Awesome followers know please,
please send me the link so I can link back to her.)
Thanks
EDIT : I'm so excited , guess who found me :) Jenn from Clean and Scentsible, the original creator of the Clothes Pin Wreath. YEA ! ! !
I started out by spacing out and clipping clothes
pins to a firm piece of paper.
Next I cut out different strips of scrapbook paper,
When they were done drying I flipped them over and
used a razor blade to cut them off.
Next, I had the Man of the House bend my hanger into a heart . . .
my attempts kept coming out looking like a kidney :)
My heart and pins ready to go . . .
After a while clipping on and moving around until the pattern looked
Next I cut out different strips of scrapbook paper,
I made each strip a little longer than the clothes pin so I had
something to hold onto while I mod podge the paper to the pin 
Isn't Modge Podge the best ? ?
The white paper on left looks a little bumpy because
I hadn't scraped the extra modge pod off yet :)
All my pins drying . . .
Notice the extra paper hanging off the pins . . .

After a while clipping on and moving around until the pattern looked
perfect, I put just a little dab of hot glue to secure them to the hanger.

You should glue shades of green paper on the other side of the clothes pins and you'll be all set for St. Paddy's day. I love it!!

SUPER cute! I saw that somewhere else too but I have no idea where:)
What a great idea. And so inexpensive. I'm excited to try it for all kinds of holidays. Thanks for the idea :)
LOVE this...so cute and easy. At first, I thought the pins were painted, until you said you used scrap paper (even better). I'm bookmarking this so I can copy you later LOL!
Oh, and I totally followed your blog and liked you on facebook too :-)
