Hanging Photo Frame

Click for larger image

You will need:

4 dark blue wide popsicle sticks (these can be bought ready colored or paint your own)
4 light blue wide popsicle sticks
PVA (white) glue
Ribbon
White or blue card
Photo
Silver glitter glue pen

Place a dot of glue on the very ends of the dark blue popsicle sticks and stick them together to make a square frame. (See below)

Glue the light blue sticks next to the dark blue ones to create a double frame. While the glue is still wet ensure the sticks sit at right angles. Leave the frame to dry.

When the frame is dry, use the glitter glue to write around the edge “Slugs and snails and puppy dog tails” and then leave the glitter to dry.

While the writing is drying pick your photo and trim it to size. Cut a piece of card the same size. Sandwich the card and picture back to back with a loop of ribbon sticking out of the top and glue.

When everything is dry use a small amount of glue to stick the photo to the frame

This craft can easily be adapted into a girls frame by using pick and purple popsicle sticks and changing the writing to read “Sugar and spice and all things nice”.
