my sister, reilly, has been collecting pins for as long as i can remember. whenever someone is unsure what to gift her, an assortment of pins is an easy fallback and her collection has expanded accordingly. one day while snooping around the house for potential design projects, i decided i wanted to help my sister display her collection since her habit of pinning new finds onto an old lime green fleece jacket in her closet was hardly doing her hundreds of pins justice.
so i stealthily removed the offending jacket from her closet...
removed the pins with the help of our little brother, camden...
painted unfinished scrapbooking frames from
michael's (around $8 a pop)...
artfully arranged the pins on pieces of white felt ($1 per piece) cut to fit the frames...
set the felt in the frames...
and — voilà! — a pretty display for her bedroom and a tidy way to flaunt her impressive collection.
