Father's Day. This article talks about some quick and easy art and craft
ideas that children can apply for making Fathers Day gifts.
Picture Frame
Requirements
- Twigs
- Strings
- Glue (preferably hot glue)
- Dad's Photo, for framing
Directions
- First, decide on a photo of dad that you would like to frame. You
may also pick a photo that captures a moment of you and dad
together.
- Now, take two bunches of twigs. Each bunch should have at least a
minimum of 6-7 twigs in it.
- One bunch should be 2- 3 inches longer than the length of the
photo and the other bunch should be 2 inches longer than the width
of the photo.
- Place the twigs in such a way that they neatly surround the photo
on all its sides.
- Also, ensure that the twigs extend outward of the photo for about
an inch on all the sides.
- Now, cut a string into four equal parts and tie the twigs at each
corner with the help of it.
- Paste the photo onto the back of the twig frame. Generally, hot
glue is more preferable as it will help to fix the picture better.
- Finally, make a small loop with the help of a string and glue it
to the top batch of twigs, for hanging the photo.
Picture Easel
Requirements
- Twigs
- Hot Glue
- Yarn or Thick Thread
- Scissors
- Cardboard
- Crayons or Paint
Directions
- Take four twigs. Three should be of equal length and the fourth a
few inches shorter.
- Glue two of the long twigs and the short twig together, so that
they form the alphabet 'A'. Carefully, tie the joints with yarn.
- Next, glue the fourth twig to the longer twigs in the A shape to
form a twig tripod. Tie the joint with yarn.
- Now, cut a cardboard piece so that it fits on the twig easel.
Paste a picture or simply paint a picture on it.
- Cut four pieces of twigs and glue them around the picture to make
a frame for it.
- Finally, rest this picture on the easel and your picture easel is
ready.
