Your kit should contain:  

One plain wooden picture frame 

  • Assorted sticker decorations 

  • Assorted charms and 3 dimensional decorations   

  • Small jar of Modge Podge (glue)

Congratulations on your Graduation!  

Celebrate this milestone by creating a one-of-a-kind picture frame. Before you start, think about the type of frame that you want to create and what type of photo you would like to highlight. Look at the examples on the Photo Frame page of the Lib Guide.

Position Your Decorations 

I would suggest that you position the decorations, stamps stickers or charms on the frame. Move them around until you are pleased with the effect. Once you are pleased with the arrangement, start gluing them in place using the directions in the next paragraph. 

Gluing the Decorations to the Frame 

The small jar contains a type of glue called Modge Podge. You can use this to glue any type of paper to the frame. You can cut out the paper decoration and paint the frame area with Modge Podge using the paint brush provided. Then gently paint Modge Podge ON TOP of the decoration as well. It will look white on top of the paper but it will dry clear. While the Modge Podge is wet, you may still move objects around. It is very sticky but will clean off of you and the paint brush with soap and water.  

Adding Your Photo 

The final step is adding your Morton Memory photo into the frame and ENJOY!
