How to.. make Paper Photo Frames

4 June 2010 25 Comments

Paper Frames

Paper craft is back (I told you I still had some up my sleeve! Scroll down for links to other paper craft ideas).

Today I would like to show you how to make super simple photo frames – one frame, 3 different mini variations. They stand up by themselves, or add a magnet and make a fridge frame (a lovely and tidy way to decorate your fridge!!). Your kids can decorate them too -colour or stick stickers or glitter on! I hope that you like them.

This was another one take wonder, so I apologise for a) background garden noise and b) that vlog ends apruptly!

Here we go:

Thanks to Birgitta for reminding me how to make these!!!

And how lovely – this got featured:

Use Dollar Store paper and you have a perfect entry for The CSI Project Challenge!

I came by last week to look at your project but was just looking through all of them. I don’t see the us of any of our sponsor’s products on your project? You are more than welcome to enter another project that has used at least one of the products. You do need to have your entries in by this evening.
