Christmas photo frame with poem from daughters

This is a great idea if you are able to pull out an old photo and put it with a new one. My sister and I found an old photograph of us when we were younger and decided to go to a local photography store and get a new one in a similar pose. I typed up the poem in Microsoft word with a special font and added a picture to add a finishing touch. We found a frame and a matte that had 3 cutouts to place our 2 pictures and poem. Put it all together and you have a one of a kind before and after memory. An inexpensive gift from the heart!

Art in a frame

This frame I had my daughters make for their grandma. I found foam people, stickers, pop cycle sticks and a frame to put this one together. My daughters each picked their foam girl and made a face on her, added foam hair, a princess hat and decorated the pop stick, then chose one for grandma! I used a colorful pink paper for the backround and was able to find a frame with a white border so we were able to decorate that with fun stickers and words. Another project you can have your kids involved with and is lots of fun. Found all the materials at my local hobby store! Inexpensive and one of a kind!

Do it yourself photo frame

I love taking pictures! For my mom on her birthday one year my brother and I were trying to think of something she would love and she hadn't had a picture of the grandkids for a while so we came up with the idea of taking the pictures ourself(much cheaper)and putting it together in a frame. I took about 25 different shots of the kids in different poses and picked the ones we liked best. Taking the pictures yourself gives you endless time and creativity with the size of the photo and how you want to arrange them in your frame. I went to a local hobby store picked up a sturdy frame and took the pictures to a local store that did one hour photos and got different sizes of the photos as well. We got the pictures home and the frame, arranged the pictures and added at the very top, each grandchild signing a small golden piece of paper with their name on it and the year written on the bottom. Making your own photo frame is unique and lots of fun!
