Mother's Day Craft - Day 2 - DIY Floral Picture Frame from Thrift Store Items

Today's craft would be great for any mom or granny that loves to take pictures of the kids.  I know my mom always has her camera with her anytime she is with the kids for any reason.  She loves to take pictures and always needs another picture frame.

I started by taking a quick trip to the thrift store to pick up a picture frame and some fabric flowers. I got lucky and found both.  I paid $0.69 for 5x7 frame and $0.99 for a bag of fabric flowers.  Fabric flowers are great for me because real flowers and I do not get along.  I am the person that managed to kill a cactus garden.  Never even knew that was possible until it happened to me.

I started by pulling most of the flowers off the stems.  I then put glue around the perimeter of the frame.

I then let Alex place the flowers around the frame.  I then went back and filled in a few places.


The frame turned from a plain navy frame to a beautiful floral picture frame worthy of any picture of kids.

This was simple and easy for small kids to do.  It was also inexpensive for those that are on a budget.


Be creative and have fun!  If your mom likes feathers, to sew (you could glue on buttons), or has another hobby, feel free to personalize the frame to her likes!
