This DIY project is a fun way to add a personal touch to your home and showcase your crafting skills.

What you need :
- glue
- clothespins (the bigger ones you can find)
- a cardboard (to use it as a support)
- a nice picture you like or a photo to insert inside .
First of all make the support for the tray using a cardboard and cut it in the hexagonal shape.
Don’t worry it will not be a “perfect hexagon” because of the singular shape of the clothespins.
The dimension of one side of the hexagon depends on the clothespins you use.
Usually one clothespin is about 10 cm, for this project i used two clothespins for each side.
The support and the picture has to be in the middle of the tray. To do that make 4 layers of clothespins , two for each side.
This will make the tray more strong and with a good thickness.
