Now glue the sticks together like the photo shows. Make sure you leave a little more room on the top than on the bottom to make it look like a picket fence. Tottie left a little more space than you need.

Wait for the paint to dry then decorate however you want. Make sure to leave room for the photo and to write "I/We Love You a Whole Bunch"
Glue your picture to the front and some magnets to the back and you're done!
