Nail Frame Father’s Daya Gift DIY Directions
Step 1
You want to find a black frame for contrast and you want it to have a somewhat wide frame.
Step 2
Using a stir stick, spread the glue on the frame, one section at a time. You want it nice and thick so the nails and washers really stick well.
*The glue you use will be key to the success of this project. You want it thick enough to be able to hold onto the objects and you want to make sure it dries perfectly clear.
Step 3
Add the nails or anything you like. Obviously, if small children are doing the project, use objects to embed that are more appropriate for their age. Keep going, until you have it all covered.
Step 4
Allow it to dry. This might take a day or two, depending on the humidity in your area and the temperature.
That’s it! Now stick a picture of Dad’s favorite car, a fish, or whatever makes him happy……..maybe a picture of YOU! The nails are squished into the glue and you shouldn’t have any pointy ends!
Here is the completed Father’s Day gift DIY Nail Frame! It’s so easy! The hardest thing will be waiting for the glue to dry!
