I’ve been sharing quite a few “back to school” crafts and gift ideas the last few days on the blog. Sadly, today’s post is going to be the last of the “theme.” {till next year that is!} But no worries because I left the best for last. Least in my opinion anyways!
This Decorative Ruler Frame craft is super simple to put together – even for a beginner. It’s perfect as a gift for a teacher OR to frame your child’s school picture in it. You can also include one of the FREE back to school printables I shared on the blog last week, in the frame. Whatever you decide to do with it – I hope you enjoy making it and showing it off!
Supplies:
* Wood Frame {Michaels for $1}
* Yellow Craft Paint
* Paint Brush
* Black Sharpie Paint Pen
* Ruler {as a guideline}
* Pretty Ribbon or Die-namics Jumbo Bow Die
* Adhesive
Directions:
* Paint your frame yellow. Set aside to let the paint dry completely.
* Lay your ruler against one side of the frame. Using that as your guideline – draw black marks along the frame. Repeat for each side. This will give the look of a ruler.
* Once dry – glue a decorative bow/ribbon on the frame.
* If you like – add one of these FREE printables inside the frame.
