Harry made this personalised photo frame ornament at school to sell at their Christmas sale. He was so proud of it and I LOVE it! I love that they used Christmas props to make the photographs extra christmassy too. 


You will need:

  • red card
  • Foam shapes
  • Glitter

Christmas Photo Frame Ornament


Begin by gluing the corners of four craft sticks together in a square shape. Using a glue gun is the quickest way to do this, but any glue will work.  Once the glue has dried draw around the craft stick square onto red card. Cut out the red card square and stick it to the craft sticks. 

Stick a circle of glittery foam into the centre of the frame and then stick a photograph on top. Decorate the craft stick frame with foam shapes and glitter.

Staple a ribbon to the back of the frame so that it is ready for hanging on the Christmas tree.

This Christmas craft was made by Harry (aged 6) at school, but it would be perfect for toddlers and preschoolers too. It is a great thing to sell at a Christmas sale as what parent couldn't resist buying their child's photo ornament. These salt dough star photo frame ornaments are cute too!
