Things You'll Need:

- Camera
- Your imagination

Step 1
Have your children take a group holiday photo of themselves. Have them dress in holiday-style clothes and pose near a fireplace, Christmas tree, a snowman they built or a pan of fresh baked cookies. Let them pick out the location and take as many snapshots as you need in fun poses.
-
Step 2
After the photos have developed (make one copy for each frame) figure out what craft items will best compliment your photo theme. If you took photos in front of the tree, stars, ornaments and candy may be your best bet; if you took photos in the snow, then snowflakes and snowmen would be best. You can also use whatever theme you wish, as long as it is holiday-oriented!

Step 3
Have an adult heat up the glue gun and take the glass out of each picture frame. Carefully glue ornaments and small craft items to the outside of the frame until you get the effect you like. Allow to dry for one hour.
-
Step 4
Once frames are dry, have an adult help you add the glass and the photo to the frame. Voila! You now have a great holiday gift for grandma and grandpa and aunts and uncles, as well as a great reminder of the holidays.
