Painted Picture Frame
A painted picture frame is a perfect Mother’s Day craft that is simple, fun, and thoughtful. To make a painted picture frame, children will need a few basic materials like a wooden frame, acrylic paint, paintbrushes, and embellishments like stickers, sequins, or glitter. They can choose any color scheme they want, depending on their mom’s favorite colors.
To start, children should remove the backing and glass from the frame to avoid getting paint on them. Then, they can apply a base coat of acrylic paint with a paintbrush or sponge. They can use multiple colors, blending them together or creating patterns.
Once the base coat is dry, they can add details and embellishments. They can use stencils to create shapes or letters, or they can freehand paint flowers, hearts, or anything else that reminds them of their mom. They can also use stickers, sequins, or glitter to add some sparkle and shine to the frame.
After they finish painting and decorating the frame, they should let it dry completely before putting the backing and glass back on. Finally, they can add a special photo of themselves and their mom to the frame to make it a complete gift.
A painted picture frame is a lovely way to show appreciation and love to Mom on Mother’s Day. It’s a thoughtful and personalized gift that she will cherish for years to come.
Personalized Apron
Personalized aprons are a great customized Mother’s Day gift idea that kids can make with a few simple materials. Here’s how to make one:
Materials:
- Plain white or colored apron
- Fabric paint or fabric markers
- Stencils or templates (optional)
- Paintbrushes or fabric markers
Instructions:
- Choose a plain apron in your mom’s favorite color.
- Decide on a design for the apron. You can use stencils or templates, or draw your own design freehand.
- Use fabric paint or fabric markers to decorate the apron with your chosen design. You can add your mom’s name, a favorite quote, or drawings of her favorite things.
- Allow the paint or markers to dry completely according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Once the paint is dry, your personalized apron is ready to wrap and give to your mom for Mother’s Day.
Tips:
Use a pencil to lightly sketch out your design on the apron before you start painting or drawing to make sure everything is evenly spaced and positioned. And practice your design on a scrap piece of fabric first to make sure you’re happy with it before you start on the apron. Also, to make sure the design is permanent, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for heat-setting the fabric paint or markers. This usually involves ironing the fabric on a high heat setting for a certain amount of time.
