So easy, you CAN do this!
This is another project Melissa and I worked on while she was visiting me in Kentucky. I saw something like it over 8 years ago and it has taken me this long to make one for my kids.
This is GREAT for keeping kids quiet and entertained during church, in waiting rooms, in the car etc.
All you do is:
1. print doubles of the pictures you want to use.
2. Take one of the doubles and cut out the head of the person.
3. Then, laminate both the full picture (I laminated 2 different pictures back to back to save room) and the "head".
4. Buy some clear round velcro and attach it to your full photo and the back of the "head" so that you can stick the head back on the body.
I love this because we don't live near our family so it helps my kiddos remember what everyoe looks like. If your kids are old enough to read you could write the names on the picture too.
5. Once you've got all of your photos ready just punch a hole in the corner and add them all to a ring.
6. You'll also want to add a thick envelope to the ring and put some velcro on the envelope so you can open and close it and store the "heads" inside.
neat idea!!

ReplyDeleteHi folks
ReplyDeleteso glad you like the Stay Tuned image that I created for my Plain Jane's Promotional Planner.
What I don't appreciate is your copying it without either permission or attribution or link back to my site. Not nice
Plain Jane
So sorry Plain Jane, I found your cute image on google images and used it. I don't even know where your site is.
ReplyDeleteI want you to know that I removed it and next time I use google images I will be more careful to find out who deserves credit for those images.
Sorry again,
Kathryn
I like the picture matching cards. Especially the picture of my bishop and his wife. Small world.
