Father's Day Football Picture Frame Sports Craft

This Father's Day football picture frame is a really creative idea. I love it.

Materials:

  • Styrofoam egg
  • 18 gauge wire
  • brown paint, brushes
  • sharp knife
  • wire cutters
  • white 3D paint or white out pen
  • pencil
  • favorite photos

Directions:

  1. Cut the bottom of the Styrofoam egg so it stands up.
  2. Paint the egg brown. Allow to dry.
  3. Use white 3D paint to paint on the football laces or use a white out pen. Allow to dry.
  4. Wrap the wire around a pencil 3 times to make a spiral. Cut the wire about 5 inches below the spiral.
  5. Stick the wire into the top of the football.
  6. Insert a couple of favorite photos into the loops of the spiral.

Variations:
  1. Use a Styrofoam ball, white and red paint to make a baseball.
  2. Use orange and black paint to make a basketball.
  3. For added stability, glue the bottom of the Styrofoam ball to a square of construction paper or cardboard.
