Pasta Photo Frame Christmas Ornaments
MY SON MADE ONE OF THESE FOR ME 2 YEARS AGO IN SCHOOL AND I JUST RECENTLY FOUND THIS ON THE INTERNET. (I HAVE QUITE A COLLECTION OF ARTS AND CRAFT IDEAS THAT I HAVE COLLECTED OVER THE YEARS AS YOU CAN PROBABLY SEE) IT IS REALLY CUTE!
What You Need
Poster board
Scissors
Hole punch
Pencil
Circle patterns
Gold metallic spray paint
Uncooked Pasta (a variety of fun shapes)
Glue
Photo
Ribbon (optional)
How To Make It
Draw a circle on the poster board about 4" in diameter (use a tin can, butter tub lid, etc. for a pattern).
Draw a smaller circle in the middle of the first one - make it a size (opening) that will fit your photo.
Cut out both circles to make a wreath shape.
Use a hole puncher to make a hole for hanging.
Glue on various pasta shapes (shells and bows work beautifully) to make a pattern on the wreath.
Let dry overnight.
Spray paint the ornament with gold metallic paint.
Let dry completely.
Add your name and date to the back of the picture.
Glue or tape the photo onto the back of the ornament so that it will show in the center of the wreath.
Attach a decorative ribbon if desired.
