painted "Loved" pins

I recently got myself a set of lighter acrylic paints, and had a pack of blank clothespins around, then this happened:

Six colors of paint, many clothespins, and a set of sharpies met up for a party and created something beautiful.

It took me about a day to paint, write on, and re-assemble the clothespins.  The result is so pleasing that I almost don't want to give them away, but the knowledge that I can always make balances that feeling out.
