As a Girl Scout Leader, I get to be a part of some really great activities. Most recently our Service Unit put together a Father/Daughter Dance! We named it Girl Scouts Go Glam! A great time was had by all. To help the night's decorations we looked at Oriental Trading Company for picture frames and we hit the jackpot!
Putting this beautiful centerpiece together was quite simple. Gathering the materials was probably harder than actually putting it together! I love that! I know we are resourceful and do our best as Girl Scouts, so check out this How-To for our Girl Scouts Go Glam centerpieces!
Step 1: Remove all parts from the frame.
Step 2: Spray paint desired color over wood frame. As you can see, we used a shimmery gold. The frame itself is smooth already, so no sanding was needed.
Step 3: Print image on vellum or like paper. Use the glass from the picture frame to achieve the correct size to fit inside the frame after cut.
Step 4: After vellum is cut to proper size, place inside of picture frame.
Step 5: Hot Glue the picture into the frame.
Step 6: While you have the hot glue gun out and HOT, run a line of glue along the sides of the frames to stick them together. Do this on 3 frames and put them together to form a triangle.
Step 7: Add your roses or any flowers you may want plus a battery operated candle. The pictures will glow and your guests will see the beautiful images shine through!
The picture frames we chose from Oriental Trading Company are a DIY type of frame! They are made special for a project just like this. You could decorate them with any color you like and even add an embellishment to show some personality.
