This is a fun, easy project for any family member. A great project for kids that allows them to express themselves and customize their favorite photos!
You will need:
Optional material:
Children are supervised around craft knife and scissors
Estimated Cost:
*materials purchased at a large craft retail store.
Estimated Project Time: 20-30 minutes
To begin, be sure you have all your materials assembled and a clean workspace. This makes any project a lot easier.
Decide what size your frame will be and cut out the back piece. (Use a cutting mat)
Once you have cut out the middle out glue the front and back together using a small amount of craft glue on the top, bottom and right edges. DO NOT glue all the edges together because you need to slide your photo in somehow.
Once the glue is dry, you can decorate your frame any way you desire.
Once the front of the frame is to your liking, turn it over and apply 2 magnetic strips. One along the top edge and one along the bottom.
Remember: Be sure to use magnetic strips that are strong enough to hold your frame on a fridge, locker door or any metal surface. These are a great project for rainy summer days! Pull out a box of photos and have at it!

This is a great craft for children. You buy some foam and make frames. Let the children take pictures of an outing and then put the pictures in the frames and then place in fridge!
