Home-made picture frames are a great gift for kids to make. See a sample of one we made for Poppy for her birthday in the picture above.
1. Pick up cheap, unfinished wood picture frames from Ikea. The ones we used were in packs of two for about £1–I can’t remember the exact price. See a larger version of what we used here.
2. Set up paint, beads, buttons, sequins, glitter, stickers, ribbons, feathers or anything else you’ve got extras of. Shops like Paperchase also have great supplies for this project.
3. Let the little ones go wild, providing assistance with the glue as necessary.
4. Once the glue has set (give it a good 24+ hours to be safe), pop in a picture of the artist and you’re finished!
