Picture Perfect Graduation Celebration Idea CLOTHESLINE OF PICTURES

Graduation is right around the corner…no matter if it is for Nursery School…Grammar School…High School or College …the time and season is very near! This can be a walk down memory lane, a keepsake of well-wishes for your graduate or both! It is “picture perfect” in every way. Directions: • Gather your materials • Photos • Blank Cards (your guests will write notes to the graduate on) • String (measure the space needed) • Nails • Clothespins Place a nail in where one end of your string will be. Tie the end of your string around the nail and make sure it's sturdy and secure. Then extend your string out to about the middle, and repeat. Pull your string taut to that spot and tie around that nail. Hang your pictures and blank cards: Use your clothespins to hang your snapshots. Horizontal pictures can be hung with two pins to keep them straight. Vertical pictures can be hung with one pin placed in the center. Leave a box or basket for extra blank cards and the pen/marker so your guests can write on the blank cards. You can even ask your guests to bring some of their own pictures they may have to place on the clothesline too. Just string up a clothesline and hang up those pictures and create a time line for the Grad…everyone is going to love it. • Pen or Marker • Box or Basket Hang your string:
