Materials

Dora Father's Day Frame Decorations
Two 6-inch paper plates
Recent photograph (or drawing)
Scissors
Glue
One yard of string, ribbon, or yarn
Hole punch

Tip: Paper or plastic disposable plates will work for this project.

Directions

Step 1
Cut the center out of a 6-inch paper plate. Tape a photograph (or drawing) to the back of the plate cutout. Glue another 6-inch paper plate to the back of the first paper plate, with the picture in between.
Step 2
Print and cut out the decorative borders and stickers. Glue the two pieces of the decorative border along the front rim of the paper plate and then glue the character stickers to the frame.
Step 3
Punch a hole at the top of the finished frame and cut a piece of ribbon for hanging the frame. Thread it through the hole and knot the ends. Hang it up!

Tip: You can use lunch-sized or dinner-sized plates, depending on the size of your photo.
