These hooks were designed for my sister's nursery. They turned out so cute
that I had to share them with you.
You will need:
- Balsa wood 6" X 18"
- 3 Wood Knobs or decorative knobs
- 3 Picture frame hooks
- acrylic paint (I used 5 colors)
- Epoxy
- Utility knife
- Assorted paintbrushes
- Shoebox
What to do: 1. Print out the patterns included at the end of this
article. You may need to enlarge them for the correct size. They should
be about 6" X 6".
2. Transfer the patterns to the balsa wood.
3. Cut out the shapes with a utility knife.
4. Paint the cut outs, and paint the outlines.
5. Paint the knobs with different patterns. I did a f, some squiggles
and pokka dots.
6. On the back of each cut out, mark the placement on the knob.
7. Start your screw for the knob on the backside of each cut out.
8. Attach the knob on the side.
9. Glue the picture hanger on the back with epoxy.
