Puzzle Frame

Very Easy Kids Craft that is SUPER CHEAP!! And this can not be messed up so anything age could do it. We did this as a Valentine's Day gift for my hubby, but this could really be any gift for any family member or friend. Or you could just do it for your own little family. I know many of us already have lots of crafting stuff in our house so you may not even have to buy anything. What you need: Frame Picture Puzzle Glue...I used mod podge because it dries clear and it was easy to dip the pieces and let my young son still be able to help. Paint (optional) Paint brush (optional) Letters (optional)...if you have beautiful handwriting you could always use a permanent marker ;) What I did: First I Painted the Frame, I wanted it to Pop a little more than the traditional color. I chose red since it was for Valentine's Day. I also painted a few of the puzzle pieces red. Second, after the frame dried I dipped the puzzle pieces in mod podge and glued them to the frame. After all the pieces were glued on I took the paint brush (cleaned of course) and painted on a layer or glue on top. Third, I took the letters and wrote "We LOVE You to PIECES!!" I put a piece of paper underneath of it to make sure it stayed in a straight line. Last I put the picture in and TaDa, a cute gift for any occasion and a fun little project for the kids.
