Picture-Frame Present
Decorate a plastic box frame to fill with memories! Great for camps, sports or school events, reunions, or parties. Give one as a gift!
1. Choose a plastic box frame on which to create your picture. Come up with a theme or select the person who will receive it as a gift. Think of symbols you can use to personalize your Picture-Frame Present.
2. Find just the right photo for the frame (or make your own drawing). Position the picture inside the frame. Attach it to the mat with a Crayola® Glue Stick. Close the frame.
3. Decorate your frame around the picture using Crayola Gel Markers. If you chose a sports theme, for example, sketch and color athletic equipment, hats and pennants around the photo in your frame. Personalize it using your name, a team name, or a nickname. Remember, if you change your mind, just wipe your frame clean with a damp paper towel, dry it, and you are ready to begin again.
4. Add finishing touches by decorating the raised edges of the box frame. Try inserting various colors of construction paper inside your frame to see whether a background color accentuates your artwork.
Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project. Observe children closely and intervene as necessary to prevent potential safety problems and ensure appropriate use of arts and crafts materials. Some craft items, particularly beads and buttons, are potential choking hazards for young children. Avoid use of such small parts with children younger than 3 years. Craft items such as scissors, push pins and chenille sticks may have sharp points or edges. Avoid use of materials with sharp points by children younger than 4 years. Read all manufacturers' safety warnings before using arts and craft supplies.
Mirrors, Picture Frames, and Plant Pots—Close adult supervision is required when children use craft materials that could shatter or break. Handheld mirrors, picture frames with glass, ceramic pots, and similar breakable items may be used only by children 8 years and older. For children 7 years and younger, use unbreakable materials such as wood or sturdy plastic picture frames, unbreakable mirrors, and plant pots that will not shatter into sharp edges.
