CREATE A CRAFT
Alot of people claim to be crafty, but my sister Rose is definately the queen of crafting. She will share a craft idea weekly, I hope you will try many of them and return often to see whats new!
*Puzzle Photo Phrame*(haha)
Ever find about 95 pieces to a 100 piece puzzle? So you save them, hoping that the stray parts will
turn up? And, do you have a collection of cassette tape cases, empty and begging to be useful? Or, CD cases
who've lost their CD's? LET'S RECYCLE!!These items, some white craft glue, a fun photo, and an inch or two of tape...that's all you'll need.
Start by sorting (large and small) your puzzle pieces into colors that you like. Flip the tape case
you're using so the small side creates a base. It will sit at an angle with the large flat side facing up. Arrange
and re-arrange your puzzle pieces to form a photo border. Layer them until you like the
way they look (two or three layers will be nice). They may extend beyond the edge of the case to conceal the case.
Next, using white glue that will dry clear, glue the puzzle pieces in place. You'll need to be patient so they don't slip out of place.
You may want to clip them with clothespins to hold them in position until they dry.
Finally, position your photo on the back side of the frame and tape it in place.
ENJOY IT!! YOU MADE IT YOURSELF!!
'Til next time--Rose--
