Directions:
- First assemble the base of your school bus. You will need SIX jumbo popsicle sticks per craft. The best way I explain this step, is to make a fence but with a large gap in between. Please use my picture above for an example.
- Once you have your piece assembled, set aside to let it dry completely.
- While it’s drying, go ahead and cut out the embellishments from your cardstock paper to give your school bus piece that one-of-a-kind look. You will want TWO wheels and a small, rectangle license plate piece.
- Go ahead and use a marker to write the year on the license plate piece.
- When the craft stick piece is dry enough, squirt some paint on a paper plate.
- Now paint your popsicle stick shape completely yellow.
- To finish off the School Bus Photo Frame – trim down the printed first day of school picture and secure it in place, to the back of the frame opening.
- Follow that up by gluing down the paper cutouts and rhinestone brake lights.
- Add any other embellishments you see fit {like adhesive magnets or string for hanging!}
- Then set aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly!
