Paper Flower Frames


This year for Christmas, I decided to hand craft most of my gifts. I needed the therapy crafting offers and it was fun! Here are some frames I made for my grandma and great aunt.
Supplies:
Wooden frames from Wal-Mart
Scrapbook paper
Modge Podge (paper formula)
Scissors
Exacto knife
Glue gun





I Modge Podged scrapbook paper to the front of the frame and trimmed around the edge with an exacto knife. I then applied a layer of Modge Podge to seal the paper. After, I created paper flowers to add some interest using a coordinating color paper. I found a great tutorial for paper flowers here: http://jonesdesigncompany.com/flowers/rolled-paper-flowers-tutorial/. After creating the flowers, I glued them using my glue gun. I printed a photo to put in the frame and done!

Emily's Teacher Rocking Chair

This rocking chair was created as a gift for my student teacher, Emily. The rocking chair was painted with the colors of her new classroom. Emily loves owls so I painted a cute owl on the back part of the chair. Students helped me paint the rest of the chair after 2 coats of primer. I probably could've just done 1 coat of primer but went with 2! Materials from Lowes: Zinnser's 1-2-3 spray primer 3 cans Valspar Jekyll Crane Cottage Green (Green) Valspar Boysenberry Jam (Purple) Valspar Water Fountain (Blue) Valspar Swim (Aqua) Valspar clear coat Brushes various sized Plastic drop cloths
