How to Make an Upcycled Christmas Frame

For this craft, you will begin by painting your frame white. I like to lay down plenty of newspaper so no paint gets on my table or floor.

Once the paint has dried on the frame, you will use craft glue to secure your pom pom clusters. I used various shades of green and different textures for a rustic look.

Once the pom poms are secure on the frame, you can add any holiday image or cut out a piece of craft paper into a tree shape, as I did and glue it in place.
