How to Make A Personalized Picture Frame

Turning a plain, ordinary picture frame into something personal for a friend, family member, or yourself is easy. It makes a great gift for any occasion. It is simple, fun, and inexpensive!

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Picture frame with a flat, wide edge.
• craft glue
• Jolee's By You (these can be found in the craft store with the scrapbook items)
• Any other craft embellishments that are 3D (stickers, wooden trinkets, craft foam shapes)
• Imagination

1. Take the glass out of the picture frame so that while you are working glue doesn't get on it.

2. 
    
   Travel Jolees

   Pick out some Jolees or other craft embellishments that make a statement about the person you are making it for. If you are making it for a person who loves to travel then find embellishments that fit that theme. (suitcase, camera, passport, countries, etc.....)

3. 
    

   Take the craft glue and adhere the embellishments to the frame. Be creative with positioning them on the frame. (put them diagonal, let them hang off the edge, etc...)

4. 
    
   Beach Theme Jolees

   Let the embellishments dry completely before putting the frame back together.
   Have fun and be imaginative, but keep the person and theme in mind while doing so.

Tips & Warnings

• Theme Examples: Beach, Pets, Travel, Sports, Fishing, Winter, Fall, Etc........
• To add an extra touch put in a photo of the person traveling, or playing their sport etc... if you have one. This however, is not necessary.
• You can find all kinds of embellishments at Michael's Craft Store, AC Moore, or any craft store. Wal Mart carries a small selection as well.
