This photo display is a great gift idea for the holiday season, and it's so simple to put together! It's the perfect way to display a few family photos that can easily be changed out regularly.

I started off with a scrap piece of wood - I used a 2x6 piece. You can cut it down to whatever length you want. I stained the board and then printed out the word "Family" in my favorite font (it's called Remember Script).
I used graphite transfer paper to trace the word onto the board, then I used a white paint pen to fill in the letters. I free-handed a little leaf detail on either side of the word.
Next up, I used my hot glue gun to attach some small metal clips along the bottom of the board. I used a tape measure to help me space them evenly.
Finally, I added some photos and hung it up! This project only took me about an hour to put together, and is such a simple and beautiful idea for a DIY Christmas gift. It is lightweight enough that I was able to hang it using Command picture hanging strips. You could also use a metal french cleat. You can see more details and photos on my blog post.
