Make Dad glad! Turn an old CD case into a bright and bold picture frame with a message.
1.
Start with a clear plastic CD case with paper jackets and extra panels removed. Ask an adult to help you carefully remove the snap-in CD panel if you have one in your CD case.
2.
Using Crayola Erasable Colored Pencils, trace each panel of the CD case on Crayola Neon Color Explosion paper to make 2 backgrounds for your photos.
3.
Design each background with Crayola Neon Color Explosion Markers.
4.
Gather photos. Use Crayola Scissors to trim photos to fit on each background. Attach photos to backgrounds with a Crayola Glue Stick.
5.
Slide papers into case slots. Add small pieces of tape to keep in place.
6.
Use Crayola Window Crayons to write a Father’s Day message and add a fun border to the front of each panel of your frame. The message can be wiped off with a damp paper towel and replaced with a new message as often as you like!
7.
Stand frame on a desk, bed table, or shelf to surprise Dad.
8.
To create a frame that hangs: If your CD case has small holes at one end where the snap-in CD panel attached, you can create a frame that hangs! Here’s how:
9.
Arrange photos on backgrounds so they present vertically instead of horizontally.
10.
Push the end of a fuzzy chenille stick through one hole in the CD case. Twist the end around the CD case.
11.
String a few beads on the wire.
12.
Push the other end of the chenille stick through the other hole and twist to make a hanger for your frame.
