Steps

  • Step 1

    With Crayola Colored Pencils, draw the shape of your the locker photo frame on a paper plate or thin recycled cardboard. Cut it out with Crayola Scissors. In the middle, cut out the section where your picture will fit.

  • Step 2

    With Crayola School Glue attach at least two magnet pieces to the back of the frame. Air-dry the glue.

  • Step 3

    Spread a thin layer of Crayola Model Magic® over the entire front of the frame as a base—it can even stick out beyond the edges if you like.

  • Step 4

    Add cool designs to the frame base with Model Magic pieces. Use thin coils for borders, edging, or to write words. Shape your favorite team logos or other designs and press them on the frame. Use your imagination! Model Magic dries to the touch overnight.

  • Step 5

    For highlights and details, complete your sophisticated locker look with Crayola Glitter Glue. Air-dry the frames.

  • Step 6

    Glue your picture to the back of the frame. Air-dry the glue before hanging it on your locker!
