My husband had a good idea for holiday gifts from the kids this year. Hand-painted picture frames. This is really such an easy project and so cute. We simply had the kids paint their frames, but you could also glue on painted shapes, letters, etc. The unfinished frames were super cheap at Michael's and come in a variety of sizes. Just go to town with the acrylics, coat with gloss medium and insert your babes' faces. Voila! A nice homemade gift for family or friends for any occasion, really.
Super cute! Could you use Modge Podge to cover or do you have to use the acrylic medium? I am new to all this cool crafting (my MOPS leader is a crazy crafter) and a little behind the times in all the mediums, etc.
ReplyDeleteI love all the new blog entries.
ReplyDeleteCarmel,
ReplyDeleteYes, you could use Mod Podge, it just didn't occur to me at the time. That stuff is very multi-purpose.
What a cute idea, i will have to remember this for granparents day or mothers day.
ReplyDeleteMy son loves to paint he will love this.
fantastic!! I cant waito do this.
ReplyDeleteHow cute!!! My mom used to do crafts with us ALL the time!!!
ReplyDeleteYou could sell these as designer photo frames, especially the first one. You're always doing such cool crafts with the kids.
ReplyDeleteWho wouldn't love a picture of the kids in a frame that the kids painted.
ReplyDeleteAnd children are always so proud to give something they have made.
Thanks for the idea!
I really like the picture frames. It's a very simple idea, wich looks very individual and nice!
ReplyDeleteA great time for you and yours 3 from a mother of 3 from Germany!
Lovely, we did these as Mother's day gifts for my mom and my MIL when the Frog Princess was 24 months old, I may have to repeat it this year with both girls as a joint gift. Great post! I may have to use it as a link if I re-do this project in May.
ReplyDeleteJust visit your blog for the first time and I love it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the inspiration!!
