Diy Chevron Photo Block Display
Here’s another one of my Diy photo blocks the Chevron Photo Block Display. I love making these photo displays! They are fun, easy, and so many ways to decorate them. 

And you can use them to display other things not just photos. Like in the picture above I am displaying a pretty vintage tag. You could even use them as a recipe card holder. 

 

This chevron photo block display was first stained, then I added the chevron pattern with a stencil and acrylic paint.   

I wrapped jute around the top and stapled it down tight on the back.  

Painted the clothes pin to match, and topped it off with a handmade flower.   

This chevron photo block display can’t get any easier then that! Have you made any photo displays?

    It hardly gets easier than that, indeed.
    I haven’t made any photo displays yet but, you are inspirational. 🙂

    This is so cute! I’m definitely going to give this a try for my son’s nursery. I’ve used a chevron pattern in other places in his room so this will go just perfectly. Thanks for the idea!

    A very cute and easy Idea (my favorite kind!) Great for fathers’ day as I’m looking for new things that don’t involve making pencil holder! hahaha. If you are looking for a summer cocktail recipe, I’ve got one up now 🙂
