Materials:
- 15 Popsicle sticks
- White glue (tacky glue or Elmer's glue)
- Paint or markers - optional
1) Lay 11 popsicle sticks flat on your work
surface so that the edges are touching and they
are all even. We will call this the base
of the frame.
2) Run a bead of glue in a straight line
vertical to the sticks you laid down and close
to one end.
3) Lay a stick on top of this bead of glue.
We'll refer to this as the brace.
4) Repeat steps 2 & 3 on the other end of the
sticks.
5) Glue two sticks together to form a V shape
then glue the ends of the V to the braces as
pictured. This will be your hanger.
6) Let the glue dry completely.
7) Paint the frame or use markers to color it
or just leave it natural and draw a design on
the two brace pieces and the hanger. For
this project we actually bought popsicle sticks
that were already colored but kids love
to paint.
8) Once the paint has completely dried, use
two sided tape or glue to attach a picture to
your frame.
