If you are looking for crafts with recycled materials and easy to make, this cannot be missing in your collection! Today I'm going to show you how to make a photo frame, with recyclable materials that can be easily found at home. Ideal to frame your photos, creations, give away, or the use you want to give it.
Materials
- Two rules
- Scissors
- Thick marker
- Cereal box
- Cardboard (preferably in a light color)
- Glue
Our Process
- Cut the cereal box in half, by one of its faces. Leave the outside face down, leaving the inside face up.
- For the central part (the uncut face of the box), measure the width between its sides, and trace a square with the thick marker.
- Start cutting at the corners of the square that you have drawn. Until leaving 4 very large eyelashes.
- With the 4 large eyelashes trimmed, draw lines parallel to the square with the same thick marker. The first is thinner (it will be the thickness of the frame), the second thicker (it will be the width of the frame), and the third one that you have more or less double the thickness of the first.
- Begin to fold all the tabs along the lines that you have drawn. Towards the opposite party.
- Cut the corners with the scissors, to leave them with the 45 degree angle that characterizes the frames.
- Cut a square from the cardstock, and stick it on the bottom of the cereal box cardboard. Do not put excessive glue, and if it is a bar, be careful not to loose any piece that could deform it.
- Finally, glue the eyelashes. To do this, fold the end of the lashes in half, and put the glue on the outermost part that you have left, until they are all joined.
