3 pairs of old glasses, a shadow box, 6 pictures and hotglue. I did change it, and you don't need the modge podge after all.
First, place a piece of paper over the lense of the glasses and rub around the edge of the glass to trace the shape of the glass. Cut it out, and mark which one is for the right lense.
(sorry about the awful pictures, the lighting is awful in the craft room at night!)
Originally I was going to modge podge the picture to the front of the glasses, but then I decided to attach it to the bottom.
After you put them on the botton, put a strip of hotglue around the lenses to keep the picture from falling out
(that's hot glue)
Next, attach the glasses with hot glue to a piece of scrapbook paper
And then hot glue the paper to the back of the picture frame (because the glasses are so heavy pull the paper down.
Put in frame
Double check the glasses (in the day) for strands of hot glue. (which I didn't and saw after she opened it) I fixed it right then and there.
cute!
