Father’s Day Cutout Frame

Is Dad's closet filled with Father's Day neckties? Looking for something special the kids can give Dad? I know my husband loves when our son gives him something handmade. I love when I receive them on Mother's Day because they come from the heart. Well, I found a picture frame over at Martha Stewart's that kids will enjoy making and Dad's are going to love it.

The present will stand proudly on a desk or bureau with the assistance of bent paper clips. The photographs, trimmed to show kids' faces, peek through the holes of the letters.

Frame How-To

Photocopy and cut out the frame template. Lay the template over lightweight card stock; trace with a pencil and cut out. Mom can cut out the middle parts of each letter. Trim photos to fit the openings, making them slightly larger than the holes; tape them behind the frame. To make the frame stand up, bend open two paper clips and tape the small sides to the backs of the letters at the very bottom.
