How to make an American Girl Doll Picture. This is a great craft idea for an American girl party favor or a girls craft project. It is a easy project for your daughter to make. We used the catalog the American Girl Doll catalog for the pictures and verbage. My daughter love learning how to make this American girl craft. She help cut out the pictures, and planed out the lay out herself.
Materials For an American Girl Picture Frame:
- Wooden Frames I got mine from AC Moore for $1 each they also have one with Mirrors so you can do a Mirrior instead of a fame.
- Mod Podge
- Brush or foam brush (you can buy in bulk $6-7 for 10 foam brushes)
- Roller or sponge
- scissors
- Pink Spray Paint or Acrlich paint
- American Girl catalog
Instructions to make an American Girl Doll Picture Frame:
- Remove the picture area from wooden frame.
- 1 day Prior With adult supervision spray paint or paint the wooden frames so they have time to dry. I was doing many frames so spray paint was easier for me.
- Cut out pictures from the catalog
- Plan out layout of the American Girl pictures
- Apply the Mod Podge where you want the picture to go.
- Carefully place down picture the catalog is thin so do not over apply Mod Podge and whee you put it down it stays you can move the pictures.
- Be sure to roller or with a sponge careful smooth out the picture removing all air bubbles out from under the pictures.
- You can layer the pictures long as you apply the Mod Podge under the image. It will dry clear
- After getting all the images applied coat of Mod Podge over the entire surface, to see the frame.
- When you are done on any corners where the pictures wrap on the the edges you can use a light sand paper to smooth out the edge and making a more finished look.
This is a great inexpensive craft for a American Girl Party Favor $2.70 per kid. With the cost being under $27 for 10 frames (that is the spray paint $4 Frames $10, brushes $6-7 bulk, and Mod Podge $8.00).
I also think this is fun craft with boys as well get the Lego catalog.
