POLOKWANE – Here’s a quick Christmas craft for to keep the children busy before Christmas. This piece of art can be either displayed on the mantelpiece, or perhaps hung on the Christmas Tree.
It is also a great gift to give to Granny and Grandpa.
Christmas Tree Photo Frame:
Materials need:
• 3 craft sticks (we used coloured but you can use plain and paint.)
• Green paint (optional)
• Glue
• Photograph (13cm x 18cm or 5″x7″)
• Double sided tape
• Green card
• Decorative bits and pieces
• Ribbon for hanging (optional)
Method:
Glue the ends of your sticks together to form a triangle. Leave to dry and then, if necessary, paint the triangle green.
NB If you intend to hang the Christmas tree frame on the tree, glue a loop of ribbon in between two of the lolly sticks at this stage.
Use double sided tape to stick your photo to the back of the triangle, trimming away the excess. Stick a triangle of green card over the back.
