\"Eight<\/a>
Square Prints<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This craft is very very simple to make, and quick enough to keep a four year old interested and engaged, plus the end result really is sweet. To create these really cute (and really easy to make) Lolly Stick Photo Frames you\u2019ll need:

Lolly Sticks \u2013 we used a mix of coloured and plain but you could paint your own ahead of time. We used 17 sticks per frame, but this will vary depending on the width of your sticks (ours were quite narrow). Make sure that they are over 4 inches (10cm) long!
Decent craft glue
A selection of Snapfish 4\u00d74\u2033 Photo Prints<\/a>, Stickers, foam letters, pom poms or anything else you\u2019d like to use to decorate

To make the photo frames you should:

Line up enough lolly sticks vertically until you have a width just slightly larger than the 4\u2033 square prints. Using the lolly sticks we had this took 11 sticks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Eight<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Glue down one stick horizontally across the top of your 11 sticks, and one across the bottom. This will hold your frame together. Allow to dry slightly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Eight<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Gently flip your base over, and glue down your chosen print. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Eight<\/a>

Now select four more lolly sticks (this is where we used the coloured ones). Glue down one across the bottom of your print, one across the top and then one down each side. Your frame is complete! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Eight<\/a>
Square Prints<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Decorate the frames in any way you\u2019d like. We used sticky-back foam shapes and letters and big fluffy pom poms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Eight<\/a>
Square Prints<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And that\u2019s it! Seriously easy and quick, even for little fingers. Make as many as you need and either leave them as they are or add magnets or ribbon\/string to the back to allow them to be hung up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
