Button Covered Pineapple Frame That Kids Can Make

It’s amazing how a simple piece of fruit can inspire the creativity in my brain!

I was cutting up some pineapple for breakfast one morning, when it dawned on me.

As a blogger {and crafter} I’m constantly looking for inspiration daily. So every few days I like to purge and organize my craft area to keep things “fresh.”

So when I came across some unused wood frames I bought from Michaels a few months back, I quickly pulled them aside and told myself “I WILL MAKE SOMETHING WITH THESE THIS WEEK!”

Well you guessed it – the simple motion of cutting pineapple and looking at the bright yellow flesh inspired today’s Button Pineapple Frame kid craft idea! Perfect for littles {and bigs} to make on the fly and display in their own home with ease!

Best part? Michaels has the frames for only ONE DOLLAR each and you probably have a stash of yellow buttons in your home already anyways, so recreating this pineapple frame idea is a VERY inexpensive DIY!

Now what are you waiting for?! Jump on the pineapple craze with me and find the full tutorial below! Then gift it to someone special OR keep it for yourself! Whatever you do – I hope we inspire YOU!
